Good day at the OVAS giant auction yesterday. Bought a truckload of plants for the 75G downstairs, finally found my tall piece of wood for the same tank and my angels — four adults and 5 juvies. One of the adults looks a bit beat up and can’t move one of his pectoral fins, and another one’s fins look a bit nibbled, too. But the others are in good shape, and most of them were happily nibbling on NLS pellets this morning.<\/p>\n
I also found 5 juvie Heterandria, which brings my little colony to eight. Very happy about that one. And picked up two pairs of Endlers. I’d always wanted some of those. One of the females seems stressed, and I hope she’ll recover. Those auctions always mean a long day in a bag for fish …<\/p>\n
Other than that I brought home some dried brine shrimp and a short-handled algae scraper, which will be much handier for the little Heterandria tank than my big one. Ver successful hunting all in all.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
