Wow thats pretty

Cories. I moved them to a different tank yesterday, I noticed they were having to spend too much time travelling to find food so I moved them to a smaller tank for now until they put on some more size. I counted them while moving, I have 25. They seem to be a mixture of Peppered and Albino

That's so cool. What are you feeding them?

[FishyMandy 6,284]

A mixture of Frozen Baby Brine Shrimp and a fry powder

So I decided to change my hair again. November 2 is the first photo... And then the second one is today. Idk. I just can't leave it alone lol

Loving the hair! You’ve reminded me I gotta sort my roots out. 

[mjfromga 1,784]

Lol... You don't like the roots? Idk... I think the dark roots are awesome in contrast. I could color the roots, but I'm not gonna.

Noo not what I meant at all! Sorry. It was the talk of hair that just reminded me of my roots and how awful my hair looks right now. 🤣 I should have worded that better.

Jealous that you young people have hair to work with?!  Mind you, I haven't used a hairdryer in years.  Towel dry - done!

So true. So hard but so true 

 

They are about a week old and I have about 20

So hard to lose a dear pet, my condolences.  But cheering hard for your cory fry!  I hope they grow out nice and strong.  I'll probably get a breeding setup going in January - prime breeding season around then.

 Funny how we can type something and it sounds different when we are thinking about it

 Me too. My hair has been getting really thin since I had Justine. You can see my scalp now

A cory breeder that I follow calls the fry catlets.  So appropriate!

What did you do?  

Hope it was fun  

[mjfromga 1,784]

I chucked all the fish into the mud a while ago. Outside weather was going to be bad and I have had to move some heaters around. I hadn't seen any signs of life in the mud for several days... But today it got fairly warm and so I threw in a tad of food. 

Admittedly this entire project and experiment has become a total mess. The net blew off in the bad weather a few days ago and I haven't had the fortitude to go out and put it back on. So the leaves are falling in and whatnot, which is annoying.

I wasn't worried about a predator due to the size of the fish and the clarity but interestingly, the water clarity is WAY better than before and I am actually concerned about the lone owl coming back now. Gotta get that net back up. 

Check out the photo way before. Huge difference. I easily spotted all 5 fish doing perfectly fine and hungry today. I need to get back on top of this. The fish seem happy here for now and the weather has been very cold which is why I chucked them here and clearly they survived it just fine. 

It still isn't done at all but I am not pressed about it for now. I will leave the fish here for now and we will drain it and finish it when weather permits. Right now this is the safest spot for them so they will stay. The dimensions aren't exact (the depth is super screwed up due to being unfinished) but it's probably about 7.5 feet by 5.5 feet right now with a max depth of less than 2 feet. So it isn't huge but it isn't small. Probably about 400 gallons give or take due to funky depths with 5 little SHRIMP.

Nothing a whole lot. Studied for exams and worked... (family order for a small celebratory dinner last night - the following night.

She is skinny and needs beefing up, but she is beautiful. Fell in love with her on my lfs fb page

 

 

[mjfromga 1,784]

Aww. She is cute. That black sure is pretty. Maybe it will hold. She is very VERY skinny though. She looks like poor little Uru did. He was unable to eat properly. I saw a BIG and very pretty all white Comet last time I went to Walmart. I did well to leave it there... But I won't lie, if it is there when I return, I will probably get it. It was actually really pretty. I doubt it will stay long.
