    How ingenious! I wonder why more humans haven’t made this a trend. It eliminates the need for a doctor to perform a fecal transplant and satisfies hunger simultaneously.

    This is one of my Mantella aurantiaca, commonly known as golden mantellas. They are small frogs native to the central highlands of Madagascar. Like their poison dart frog cousins of South and Central America, they have evolved to accumulate in their skin alkaloids from insects in their diet...

    Can anyone help me identify this fish?

    My ~15 gallon fish tank project

    It is true that ideally you want a softer, sandy substrate for corys. If you’ve ever seen them dig through it searching for food, you’ll understand why and never want to deprive them of that. It’s second only to their wiggling when it comes to their cute behaviors…With regard to the honey...

    My ~15 gallon fish tank project

    I don’t think 20 small fish is too many in a 15, especially when there are only 2 species and one is primarily a bottom dweller. (Not that there’s a whole lot of stratification in a 15, but still.) The gourami will not eat the eggs.

    My ~15 gallon fish tank project

    Your tank is looking great! Neocaridina shrimp are much hardier, so I’d give them a thumbs up. But, don’t feel as though you need a clean up crew. Your hands will be the best clean up crew your tank has. If you’re set on getting shrimp that will help take care of uneaten food or algae, you can’t...

    My ~15 gallon fish tank project

    Crystal reds are beautiful shrimp, but they are unforgiving when it comes to water parameters. If you are using CO2, I wouldn't recommend them. It is also a big risk putting them in with those species of gourami, they may end up as snacks. (There is also a problem with an iridovirus plaguing...

    Not at all. Just put some more gravel on top if you don't like the look of the mixed substrates.

    black water tank worries

    Performing water changes with water that isn’t tannin-stained is not a problem. Replacing with water that has very different Gh and Kh values is the issue. Just make sure that the new water has similar hardness to that of the tank. You can, of course, soak botanicals in the new water if you...

    It’s from the ‘70s. It’s a campy twist on the mobster genre where the parts are played by kid actors. Very entertaining.

    Looking for Cory Hastatus

    Just in case you are are still in search of hastatus corys, there are two sellers offering them on Aquabid. (I’ve been waiting well over 2.5 years myself.)

    The only time I ever smoked a cigar was in Havanna back in ‘97: it was a couple of Cohibas and Ron Mulata which we drank out of the bottle while sitting on the Malecon facing the ocean. Good times.
