Ada 60F -go with the flow- nature aquarium

How are you finding the Sparkling Gouramis? How many do you have? I got 3 a week ago and they are very naughty ...chasing the Celestial Danios and I haven't seen many Cherry shrimp since I added them...

Very interesting to watch though!

They were 3, two of them were very agressiv and unfortunately one jumped out of the tank (maybe two males?)

Now that they're only two(male/female), no problem.

They are very peaceful with ember tetra and amano shrimps too...they are just eating some small snails...I hope they'll stay calm. As DW1305 said, they love to eat small coloured shrimps like red cherry.
 
Thanks!

My riccardia is getting Brown, is it burned by ferts?

I've upped NPK daily dosing to avoid staghorn and since that my riccardia is getting Brown...I'm not using liquid carbon since 3 weeks.

Here's a pic🙁it's getting worse)

Hi Darrel, I dose aquarebell liquid fertiliser this way;

3ml aquarebell estimative index / day
0,5 ml aquarebell eisen / day
50% waterchange with tap water per week.

Since this problem I'm now trying this;

2ml aquarebell estimative index/ day.
4ml aquarebell eisen after weekly waterchange.

Hope I'll found balance between good growth and not burning mini pellia! Any advice is welcome.

You're welcome.

Yes they're shy, but give them some places to hide and a lot of friends (even other small species dither fish, like boraras, danios or kubotai), and they'll become braver and braver. 😉
 
Thanks guys!
