I decided today, due to the continual emergence of snails and some hair algae (stubble) on the plants to have Sunday as a fasting day.
To my delight tonight the water is clearer than it has ever been, the plants are looking greener, the lights look brighter (they haven't been munching on the lights don't worry) in that the tank looks brighter, the glass is cleaner to the point of looking like a mirror inside (which the fish keep banging into. lol)
The plecs have had an awesome housekeeping day mcunching on bogwood, cleaning the riccia cave roof, and scouring the glass
The mollys have spent the day on the leaves munching on the algae 'stubble' and also picking up a little bit off the glass.
The Danios have been chasing the fry and looking for other morsals as well (These fry are leftovers I couldn't catch when I got rid of the rest)
the Betta has been scouring the tank in search of snails eggs. and has been seen munching so I assume he found a secret stash.
And the glolights have been sitting in the middle waiting to munch on whatever hidden surprises appear from the frantic leaf and sand movement (which has been plentiful)
I am possibly guilty of overfeeding my fish I think and therefore will cut down, but I think I will keep Sundays as fasting day to let the fish continue their good work
Have to recommend this idea, really works. (I suppose with the right combination of different food source devourers)
