This and the other two pictures show a kuhli loach head leaking through some plants.

I have decided itโ€™s time to appreciate kuhli loaches once again. Now that the front of my tank is no longer a vast jungle, theyโ€˜ve been wiggling through the Bucephalandra thicket more again.

Surprising that there is a picture of it in which it doesnโ€˜t spew tons of smoke

Did a big trimming and maintenance session on the 72L. Removed some of the Helianthium bolivianum in the front because it got too large (see my hand for comparison). Replaced it with Eleocharis acicularis, which will hopefully be better.

A school of Albino/white black neon tetras in the pet store. Quite ironic if you ask me.

I recently saw something new in the fish store: white black neon tetras. I thought they were pretty cool, yet a quite funny concept.

A view of the main stage of the Guns Nโ€˜ Roses concert. On both sides there are two huge screens currently depicting the guitarist Slash during a solo.

Bit of a deviation from my usual posts but I was recently at a Guns Nโ€˜ Roses concert and I was very happy to see them supporting #Ukraine ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ฆ

This little guy or gal has a favorite hangout/hiding spot which is also kept quite clean. Itโ€˜s nice to see your fish develop some habits.

Itโ€˜s been way too long since I posted, so here is my latest attempt to get a nice video of the emperor tetra tank. Needless to say, it was taken a bit late.

Iโ€˜m from Germany and Iโ€˜m honestly not sure. Iโ€˜d say yes since the planes are already moving but the decision is so unpopular in the US and trump cares so much about his popularity that itโ€˜s hard to say. Guess it depends on if Netanyahu has enough influence or not.

Today, let me just share with you a brief view into my tank. Watching my white clouds go about their business.

Update on my wabenmuster pleco female. Sheโ€˜s been in quarantine for a few weeks and has finally started eating nicely about a week and a half ago. I also donโ€˜t have to blanch her zucchinis anymore for her to feed on them. Getting better! โ˜บ๏ธ

I feel like itโ€˜s time for an update on the tanks. The bigger 72L might need a trim for the Helianthium bolivianum but I enjoy the jungle-vibes it gives and so do my kuhli loaches ๐Ÿ˜

Ah, I see! I used to have Pseudomugil furcatus. Pretty much all pseudomugil rainbows are amazing, though! :)

The blue-eye are furcatus rainbows, right? Iโ€˜ve had those before, theyโ€˜re amazing!
Theyโ€˜re so much fun to watch!

Iโ€˜ve been struggling recently with my female Wabenmuster pleco. Sheโ€˜s been getting bullied by the male and got very thin. So today I almost completely disassembled the tank and put her into quarantine where sheโ€˜ll hopefully get back some strength munching on some zucchini ๐Ÿคž

Today itโ€˜s time to appreciate the undersides of some of my pets. I got this neat shot of the underside of my kuhli loach, as well as seeing a berried shrimp with the eyes of the shrimplets already visible. Iโ€˜ve only seen that once before.

Let me share with you today some pictures of my favorite fish: the emperor tetra (Nematobrycon palmeri). I love the shimmer and blue eyes on the males as well as the green eyes on the females.
As a bonus: a Siamese algae eater.
All of them are fairly old already at 4-5 years.
