I've had green neons for over a year by now and I still love them. I genuinely cannot believe how colourful they are. Especially when they're behind a very light green plant (like nymphoides taiwan or dwarf sag) they literally glow

I have 2 honey gourami females in a gallon jar with a male Amano, male yellow and male cherry shrimp with a few young ramshorns, plus 8 different plants and fluval substrate. The honey gourami are such carefree fish even when Im moving stuff theyre chill and curious. My Amano was having trouble eating, but I think I needed to up the calcium, so I first put eggshells, but eventually broke off some coral Ive had, and hes a voracious eater. They all get along in close proximity, and all the shrimp have fun hiding places. I also have a large volcanic boulder with some lake wood pieces for them to climb on. The HG are always pecking at all the plants. The only issue Ive experienced is they peck at the ramshorn tentacles. Otherwise they get along awesome.

I love your tank, I found it because I did a dirtied tank, Father Fish taught me. I picked Honey Gourami after much struggle on what to put in it. I love them. I have two and nine neon tetras. So far anyway. Brought my plants from Father Fish and they are great. Waiting a little while before I add something else. I love cory cats they are so cute.

Hi! Your video popped up in my feed and watched it. I noticed that your filter has a piece of plastic connected to the end where water is released. I was wondering what you used and how it was attached. I've been tying a sponge to break the water intensity in all of my tanks which acts as an extra filtration. The water exiting the filter leaves minimal disruption to the tank.

@WorldofWhasian 10 ай бұрын

Thank you so much for watching it! It is a cut piece of a water bottle that I placed under the hang on back filter. I want the water to skim across the top in stead of barreling straight down.

What I notice in your tank is the almost complete lack of algae. I'm guessing that this is because of the surface plants. I would like to know the size of the aquarium and the daily amount of artificial light that you give it.

@WorldofWhasian 10 ай бұрын

Thanks for watching! It gets 12 hours of light a day believe it or not. I have the fluval plant light and it is actually set to 60 percent. Also the floating plants definitely contribute greatly along with the school of otos that i have in here.

@joakimhjelm-svennesen8984 10 ай бұрын

I love that jungle style overgrown look, I must admit that, before you trimmed the tank. But how do you make sure that the submerged plants beneath the floating plants get sufficient light. I find that many of my hygrophila polysperma suffer from stem rot because they don’t get sufficient or enough light form my led lights. I also have frogbit and duckweed. I try to remove duckweed and frogbit, but without removing too much and I also try to trim down the hygrophila polysperma

@WorldofWhasian 10 ай бұрын

The floating plants provide a ton of shade here but I do have a super nutrient rich substrate layer. I was also pretty intentional about picking plants that like lower to medium lighting as well. Is your hygrophila in a dirted tank of the sort? Could be a nutrient deficiency. Polysperma can also be quite fragile, is it new by any chance?

@joakimhjelm-svennesen8984 10 ай бұрын

@@WorldofWhasian the tank is not new. And I use soil covered with fine gravel. I was under the impression that polysperma was an easy plant to grow. And I use CO2. Maybe you could direct me in another direction of plants. I love the look of hygrophila polysperma. So it would have to be same sort of looking like that

Why don't you add some cherry shrimps. Though most will die surviving ones will shine brighter. I added 10 cherry shrimps in my planted tank with a betta. There have been some babies but they don't grow since they will be eaten by the betta and scarlet badis.but the surviving 4-5 shrimps have the vibrant red colour now.
