Everybodys sick ....

Mr Cross eyed is luckily not infected with crazy columnaris but has a maracide resistant strain of ich from walmart after my net dip failed me. One of my yellow babies got it too and then some other tanked fish like the ropefish and raphael cat. On top of that I am sick too can barely hear anything and the meds arent helping. Also put a bid down on a few fish on aquabid.... I am super bored.... but still need to do water changes the three remaining mutli babies from psycho are glaring at me....

Update:

No ct babies the heater popped out on me and much to daddies dismay the eggs died.

My new male ( who sucks at blowing nests ) got what I think is columnaris.... this was my reaction .... FLEXIBACTERIA WHY YOU NO DIE?! I swear if it happens again I will change my major and wipe this disease off the planet ...

In better news I am trying a new method bucket breeding with Psycho and a hm fem. will see what happens from it. His babies also turned out nice but in sad news again the steel female, the mom, (whose sister died) is sick... finger crossed she gets better.

The chocolate got what I think was velvet but got over it very nice.

I need to make more micro worm cultures... ugh...

My new vt and his female are looking good and will probably be bred soon :)

All for now I think... more water changes here I go

Rave: Indian Almond Leaves

What a treat I have never had such dark water so fast with any other additives. I have used oak leaves, green tea, tannin powders and straight Indian Almond Leaves (IAL) surpasses them all. My boys have never been so happy an so are the other dark soft water loving fish. If you ever feel like getting them isnt worth it, I thought so too and am happy now I didnt put it off longer. As for increasing spawning we will see I think anything that mimics the natural habitat is going to be helpful. As for anti-bacterial and anti-fungal I have seen great results in reducing pine-conning and helping my little Dragon overcome his long fight with fin rot. He seems happier and is holding his fins out more.
