Dear Gabriel: Ideally, there should be more female livebearers, in a tank, than males. If males out-number females, the females will be harassed, constantly. I’d move one of your, two, red, delta-tailed, males guppies, into the male tank. How hot does it get, in your fish room? None of the fauna you have should be kept at temperatures warmer than 80°F. Aquatic plants do best at temperatures much lower. Congratulations, on getting your, terrific banner. Thank you for sharing this, interesting update. All my best, Sincerely, E. J. Brinegar

Dear Gabriel: Are you able to find a vendor, of compost (processed horse manure)? It contains all the nutrients your plants need and is a lot cheaper than liquid fertilizer or root tabs. You can add it, to your substrate, by wrapping it in brown paper (with no glue or toner) and sticking that, into the sand. Simply add packets of compost, near the roots of your plants. The brown paper will deteriorate and the roots of your plants will be fertilized. It is very important to quarantine new fish, especially from a box store, for at least three weeks. They may carry pathogens that could infect your, existing stock. I hope you have good success, with your hobby. Sincerely, E. J. Brinegar

I had thought about quarantine but didn't remember i had an extra tank, which i right now remember i do. I guess i figured i had very little fish in here so the risk was not too great and went for it. I will in the future make sure i do the quarantine. Thank you for your continued support.

Dear Gabriel: The species of Amazon sword plant you acquired appears to be Echinodorus bleheri. $12.00, for a specimen that size, in such good condition was a real bargain! I’m very pleased that you enjoyed the swap meet. I was surprised, when I watched your, previous video, to note that you rented a motel room, for same. I went to a swap meet, last weekend. Getting there involved a 2.5 hour drive and the event only lasted a few hours. I did have a blast and purchased several items, at very good prices. I hope you find closer, such events, in future, to attend. Please do not break your Amazon sword plant in half. That would likely kill it. The only way to propagate Amazon sword plants, from my experience, is to remove daughter plants from runners. Even this is risky. I removed two daughter plants, from the same runner and replanted them, only to have both expire. I recommend leaving daughter plants on runners as long as possible. It might even be best to root daughter plants, in the substrate and leave runners in tact, to deteriorate, on their own. If you don’t have a water-test kit, please take a sample of the water from the tank, where all the plants died, to a pet store and ask them to test it (for free) for ammonia, nitrite, and nitrate. If any of those parameters are high, it will be necessary to get that sorted before adding fauna. Thank you for sharing this, terrific update. All my best, Sincerely, E. J. Brinegar

Dear Gabriel: My purchases, at the swap meet are now spread about my and Charles’ houses. I was very pleased, to get two bunches of jungle val (at $5.00/bunch) and the bunches were quite large. Other than that, I purchased three, small, plastic hides, at $1.00/each. I gave these to Charles, as he likes to glue hides, together and decorate and paint them. After which, he covers them with epoxy, making them aquarium-safe. I got a few items, for free, including a “Betta bed,” still in the original packaging. I got a fish net, which had a few holes in it. I sewed them up, with sewing thread. I was interested in bunches of floating crystalwort (Riccia fluitans), on offer, at $5.00/bunch, from the same vendor, who sold me the jungle val. But, I decided to forgo this species, as I haven’t had much success with it, in the past. Apparently, it is necessary to keep it in a tank, which has weak, water flow. I haven’t yet figured out how to keep plants, from becoming covered, in green hair algae, in such a set-up. Charles purchased a couple bunches of Alternanthera reineckii; traded an aquarium, for a tall, corner tank, with a bow-front (about 10 gallons, in size); and, around a dozen, small mystery snails. He got a couple of heaters, for free, but hasn’t tested them, yet, to see if they work. He purchased two, large bags of bloodworm flakes and gave me a generous portion, of same. He purchased a few other items, as well. The experience, of the swap meet was very enjoyable. I appreciate your enthusiasm and am very pleased to see that you acquired more than a trio of albino-red, delta-tailed, fancy guppies. Keep up your, terrific hobby and YouTubing. Sincerely, Brinegar
