Nice plant growth!

You said you add Co2 right? Any other tricks? Looks like plant selection has alot to do with it..

Co2 - yes

tricks - ammm not really - fertilizer ( playing with matching the needs of plants by experimental dosage of nutrients ) , 10h of light 394W compact fluorescent

plant selection - I get all the plants which look good to me = ) of course you gotta more or less match them but I don' try to make it a biotop of some particular place ... mainly amazon, some African, and some are said not to be kept in aquariums or should I say " impossible aquarium growth " = )


PS. THE BABIES HATCHED !!! THERE IS TON OF THEM !!! lol they ain't freesweemers yet I guess 2 more days of dragging their tails on the floor then thsy should be able to swim on their own ...

anybody here raised festivums ? From what I know if you will give them some "big" food like dry food they will die - they must get SUPER SMALL food,

PEACE

wish me luck
 
HELLO everyone - the babies are now freesweemers since ... 2days ago ? GOD I'll be so happy if at least half of them survives cuz there must be something around 200 of babies right now !!!

will post pic very soon,

take care you all
 
Just curious, where do you buy your plants/fish? I live in Queens as well and I'm interested in any good fish stores I havn't discovered yet.
 
Enjoy, and forgive me for far from good pictures :X

now the hard part ... feeding the babies + WC ... yeah the artemia salina are bieng hatched, I tried giving them some super fine "powder" like food for babies ... and IDK can't see whether they eat it or not ... hopefully they still have some reserves from the yolk sac ...


wish me luck
