Pisces. Daddo. I geek out on a few things too. Talkative in person—probably too much. Opinionated about human rights.
My daughter’s 20g was overstocked after her platies had babies. I built out a 20g long for them to grow out in. These will loom amazing once they get their full color. Updates to come #fishkeeping

It’s been a minute since my last post.

Feeding time was a joy this morning. I’m loving the baby guppies. They are so small yet so outgoing.

There must be something in the water…. My recent addition to my take came in with fry. Within a few days, she had them.

So far, I’ve found 6.

Cinca is a juvenile platy that entered my 60g community tank as a days-old fry in some Java moss from my LFS.

We named her Cinco before we knew her sex. At that time her “freckles” were 5 distinct lines.

Pearl danios are flashing color a bit. Their colors are normally quite subdued. I’ll be on the lookout for spawning in the mornings.

As busy as these danios are, I really enjoy their patient temperament.

Guppies are just shoaling along.

Y’all. I can’t even with these snails 🤣. This is the best clip I’ve caught of a snail mouth.

They’re too funny.

Hovering Cory boss. The biggest of my julli Cory cats is just hovering. 🤣

Okay fishkeepers. Is this young plate pregnant or just very obviously female?

Propagating bucopa and what’s left of my ludwigia (ehem.. danios).

I love how the danios are all over while I do this and the ever chill neons just hang around.

I started out with 12 rams and 1 mystery. Now I’m up to 5+ mystery and over 30 ramshorns. The rams really took off in this tank. They’re fun.
