My pandas have bred in my angel tank.

I love Cory cats. Got a mix of Panda and Sterbai in my Discus tank. About 22 in total.

The cories are absolutely adorable. They just root around all day and shoal in groups periodically.

If they are so adorable and you love them so much then why don’t we see more pics of them on this thread

Gardening... He already said.

 

[Cthulukelele]

It really is the gardening lol I've been outside too much

Thought I'd post an update photo of the grown in betta tank. Has neocaridina shrimp, otos, pygmy cories, and chili rasbora as well as the now fully grown female betta. Tons of different plants.


Saltwater tank also looking pretty good. Needs algae clean up but other than that all the fish getting big, and a few of the corals have really grown in.

Been busy with life stuff as well but still keeping everything going! I'm officially an uncle as of Monday

I'm very happy with progress especially with the betta tank. Gonna add some more pygmy cories soon. Sadly lost a couple in the tank move. I also just recently built a new computer because all my hobbies have to be expensive lol. They were out of the normal version of the case I wanted so now it's covered in GAMER lights haha.

Lookin sharp! I share the sentiment on expensive hobbies. Just bit the bullet on a 4090 and it stung!

Petco has some pygmies come in the other day. I didn't buy them and went back the next to find most of them dead or dying... I didn't buy any that day either.

Nice running Into this thread and your other hobbies .. I have been into plants (terrestrial, aquatic) for a bit and do gardening .. moving one of my planted tanks for the reef setup ..Its kinda cold but let me know if you need/want any aquatic plants

Oh and forgot to mention ..
“It’s beginning to look a lot like fish men “

 

[Cthulukelele]

I added some extra light and now my rotala new growth has gone pinky red

Pygmy cories are my favorite freshwater fish and controversially they may have usurped valentini puffers as my favorite fish. They love using different broad leafed plants in the tank as hammocks together in the tank. It's my favorite

 

[Cthulukelele]

I added 5 new pygmy cories to replace the 2 I lost in the tank move. It was adorable to see them immediately glom on to the big 3 in follow the leader all over the tank. It's so cool. They quickly learned about feeding time from them which is hard for these fish. They also have already gotten to learn a lot of the great tank perching locations in the java moss, christmas moss, anubias, and swords

More pics because I am OBSESSED. It's like watching older siblings teach their younger bro all the cool spots to hang out in town

Main tank photo dump time! A bit of algae, but overall all the corals/nems have grown and all the fish getting fat, colorful, and happy. Did some big tune maintenance today on all the major equipment.

Whenever the one spot foxface gets a little spooked he goes all spikey Boi in the gorgonian.

Also in shrimp news, there are like 3 ROUND berried shrimp of various colors in the tank rn.
