Dwarf riccia / mini riccia ?

Or anyone can spare me some ?

my GDA stuck on glass, wood and stones,...

glass - easy to remove
wood- difficult
stone - very difficult..

"

mind to share which stream did u find it from ?

well,

1 depends on what moss you are having.
2. if they can survive they wont flourish as much

^^

cheers

Most Taxiphyllum can go up to 31- 32'C.
Eg Christmas moss can survive but don't expect it to grow as fast

If u want them PM me ^^

Simple fan ^^

well that depends if you have shrimp in that tank.
if yes then best to treat separately

Can use fire extinguisher tanks too ( comes in red color ^^ )

No pun intended ... It can be used.

Hmm I'm the paranoid type, quarantine everything. better safe than sorry.

for plants unless I'm very sure of the source is shrimp safe and clean then directly into tank
otherwise its almost always a bag of active carbon and the said plant with minimum water ( soak everything in)

after a day or two .. place one test shrimp and observe overnight or two, if still kicking and alive . then goes into main tank


fluval activated carbon are cheap and good . less than rm10 for 3 big bags or 1 bag for even less ...

cheers

wow nice !

btw what type/sp of buce is it?

Ooo I thought it was a new leaf



MC Melting ? May be its due to insufficient light / CO2, mc quite high demand actually.

Dust algae issue ?
I was trying all kinds of methods to deal with it.
So far I just employ* a few hardworking Oto and so far all good ^^

Do keep in mind just one or two Oto will be good enough depending on size of your tank as they need quite a bit to eat (GDA or diatoms) to survive.

It will take some time for them to clear the green stuff. Pls be patient.

It will be tempting to add a number of them to get the job done faster. But soon they will be starving to death ( or you'll need to supplement algae wafers )

For me algae wafers is out of the question as my shrimps will swam on it and left nothing for Oto to eat.

Cheers ^^

Oh my...

get some activated carbon packs and place them into the tank asap.

all new flora and fauna must be quarantined, for the sake of the others that we currently have in our tanks.


on the side note could you share your LFS, so that the members here will be extra careful ( in quarantining ) when purchasing from that shop.
thanks

Can Any one point out how to get rid of hair like algae?, its over taking my riccia, mini pelia, aquarium glass too..
