When is the right size to put the baby ones on new tank
@AquatikGuru
@AquatikGuru 6 күн бұрын
That depends on variety and growth speed. Simply because if you’re very serious about culling to very fine details you wouldn’t want to drop a seeded female with low quality babies or you can change the whole dynamic of your process. I myself using cameras and different magnification lenses looked for babies more meticulously to separate similar looking patterns very early. Then waiting a week or two, going to those transfered babies to look even closer for finer differences. In short…..I’d say I started as soon as I saw the babies

Props are in the way. The lid is so light. The props can go further back. If the tank is closer to the wall, there is a gap in the lid lip that props it up perfectly alone.

The whole point to the lid propz, xl lid propz, and foldable lid propz is to allow the light to remain above the tank so you can see what you’re doing when you’re trimming plants etc. with the lid light. The xl model is more for aquascaping, adding fish, stuff like that, foldable is for if you’re one of those constant testers or people messing with the tank so you can just leave the props attached to the tank. They all have an intended purpose. Tip for ya too, there’s multiple videos on multiple products

I never saw anything in any of my aquariums until I watched a video about these worms and now I saw something on my one aquarium. They're not linear... They just look like little tiny white specks that are moving. Is that planaria that just hasn't grown yet or is it something else if it's not linear? I got an aquarium sponge on a handle and just wiped the glass. I'm sure it didn't get rid of them. If these are not planaria do you know what they are and how to get rid of them?
@AquatikGuru

Fluval bug bites gives your tanks planaria. A short time after I purchased three different varieties and feeding them to certain tanks those tanks had outbreaks of planaria. I’m here now relaying a test I done with six twelve litre tanks with four receiving three products of fluval bug bites. Their tropical formula medium/large grain tropical formula small grain and bottom feeder formula. Those four tanks that had fluval products after three months had planaria. The other two were fed with what I was using before and nothing other than seed shrimp visible. Now I could’ve made a first time purchase of something and one if not all three items were a bad batch but I won’t be using those products again or testing to see which one. My experience and advice on fluval bug bites is don’t use it unless you’re ok with planaria. Having to get rid of them got rid of much of the other beneficial micro life which I could luckily reintroduce from other tanks through water and items sat in a healthy matured tank being moved to the the nuked tank. For eradication I used another method I use for complete annihilation in quarantine tanks and that was panacur c dog dewormer in powder form. Before that it was copper which would’nt have been able to go in anything with shrimp and fish. Panacur c can also avoid harming snails at low doses too. Partly why I use it over other products I’ve never tried for reasons such as what I’m saying right now.

I never did add them back in that exact setup. I removed the shrimp. Quarantined them in a separate tank. Same with the snails. Quarantined the plants with planaria traps to catch any leftovers. Put most the plants in my platy tank so they’d just eat all the planaria. Removed losses as needed that were already infested with planaria. Cleaned entire tank. Replaced filters and everything else in there and re introduced all the survivors .
