The Miracle Tank

[najer]

Update on the sick nems I took in.

Haddoni is actually recovering and has hints of blue and red in with the green (hope that stays and isn’t a form of expelling certain zoo), purple base mag is doing well, the red base mag didn’t make it :(. The red base was the worst of them all. Filaments were being spit out, so was not sure. I don’t have pics as work is busy and lights aren’t on yet, but will snag some at some point.

:( The red was in another tank right?

All were in a 33 when I got it all setup. I am working almost 20 hour days now and they are in the same room as me, so easy to check. I pulled the red one before it could melt.

Sorry the red didn't make it. Great news on the other two.

Throw the coralline in a blender and pour into your tank. Fastest way to seed the whole tank

I crushed it up with the blunt end of pliers. Not using the new blender. Mama would whoop me inside out and upside down hahah

Blend coralline, dump, blend water and vinegar, dump and them rinse out lol.

Nem spam!!! The merten has finally settled in and opened up. 18-20” fully expanded. From the top it is almost as big as the section made by the brace. (7’ tank, 2 braces, about 20” for each section.) When all lights are on, it is in about 650 par.

I know! That’s why the tanks in my room with the door closed where I hide! Can’t get yelled at for water spilling if it’s closed off ;)

Just no unless you know your levels are super stable.

Broken phone camera lol

Not yet. Soon though. Once I get a week or so or daily or every 2 day tests stable. I’ve had great luck with sticks before in my last nano with no ato no heater and no testing
Edit. Might buy it and have lfs hold it for a bit
