#Nano tank

[fishproblem]

being a god is so hard like I fully understand why they've all abandoned us. yesterday i changed the water in my nano tank and the weather there is pretty much always 80°F and sunny but the replacement water was cool and it had been a couple weeks so it replicated a rainfall after a drought and so then my little civilization of ember tetras all thought it was Time To Fuck but my stocking somehow skews aggressively male so this morning I turned on the sun to see they all had raggedy little tails after beating the shit out of each other over the One Woman on Earth.

New tank + this time it has a proper solid bottom. It's likely the fact I didn't have a solid bottom on the last tank was a potential cause of failure. It's currently living on an old textbook that I never read haha.

My vision of a nano shrimp tank will be realized so help me god. I'm surprised how sad the Java fern is looking, it's been melting a lot since the two tank transfers. I hope it can push out some new growth soon

Browsing floating plant offerings online, and right now the average cost of a portion of duckweed seems to be around 8 bucks.

They should be paying people to take that shit.

The babies are all fully fed and sleeby on the bottom, they have a shrimp/sponge filter that works really well, but I turned it off to hatch some daphnia :D some mini bladder snails and shrimps on the way after they hatch to make a lil ecosystem. One of the leeches came shipped with a dent that looks like a waist, so I added some alder cones to repair a potentially stress induced cramped crop

⭐️ INTRODUCING: My little guys! ✨

Might be my favorite build to date, partially because it turned out great, and also because every single element was reused. Not a single new purchase went into this, everything is either hand-made or stuff I kept from older builds from years ago.

Enclosure is a 5.5g I received from a friend after their betta passed. Substrate is a lower layer of various filter foam blocks and ceramic media I've accumulated over the years, topped with a mix of aquasoil and gravel that came from a decommissioned build.

The stream was made from an upside-down log decoration, lined with spare lava rock. The water is pumped by a tiny aquarium pump I kept for a few years. The bridge decoration was bought years ago, as were all the plants. Everything green is a live plant. The sign is handmade from polymer clay.

The pump is nested within the foam on the right side, drawing water from the pool on the left through the sponges and ceramic, and out into the stream to cycle again. Despite the small water body, the tank has tons of surfaces for beneficial bacteria. The filtration should become even more potent once the plant roots burrow into the sponges and take nutrients directly from the water.

I'm waiting for the plants to get established so I can make adjustments as needed. The future residents will be vampire crabs!

the shrimp are more grateful for the playthings I give them than the dog and cats have ever been

Spent all night last night toying with my new shrimp scape idea! It's nothing special, but for my second ever attempt at aquascaping I'm feeling real good about it.

Materials used: pool filter sand, ohko stone, spiderwood. 3.6 gallon rimless tank.
