Who Gives A Fish Forums

Just a quick update, folks. The happy little couple is still thriving. Three weeks in and we've got some tiny additions - I'm beyond stoked to see that they've got babies. The male's colors have been even more vibrant since they started spawning, and the female's been busy taking care of the little ...

Thanks for the advice and insight. The happy little pair is thriving.

Thanks coltin, really appreciate the advice. My Kribs are doing fantastic, constantly digging and making themselves at home.

Her colors are looking ...

I've also had great success with Jobe spikes for my plants, they work a treat for my Red Lotus which is just thriving and looking stunning. I've got a pretty low bioload in my 29 gallon tank with just four Corys, but the plants are all doing fantastically with the occasional fert dose every couple ...

I'm aware of the tendencies of these high-achieving plants, just thought this particular leaf was worth sharing.
