12 Jan. Update

Over the last few days I've gathered up a few bits and pieces for the 25g.
I've added a background, some fine black gravel (but need more), another piece of driftwood, a (melted) crypt wendtii (which I'm assuming will grow back soon enough), and some guppy/stargrass. No, it's not SE Asian but it'll make the tank look a bit less bland until I get some more SE Asian plants.

Slightly Re-Scaped 25g FTS

Stargrass in-between the driftwood

I also haven't updated on my axolotls for a very loooong time. So here is the tank at the moment:

The 2 parents are still happily living in the tank, while the 2 babies live in the net (so the parents can't eat them).

Mommy Axie

Babies:

One thing I did notice though, is that the albino baby may be picking on their sibling. The brown axolotl has a bit of its tail missing and possibly a leg. So I may have to purchase a divided separating net to prevent any further damage.

The 14g has been re-scaped, though the photo makes it look 10x worse than it actually is. I want to get some more Jungle Vals and other plants. Does anyone know how long it takes for the dwarf hairgrass to form a carpet?

I'm also considering changing the substrate.. Maybe more fine black gravel or maybe a different colour. I'm not 100% sure yet. But the white gravel isn't playing well with the fishes colours or look very good with the plants and the layout at the moment.

So... here's an FTS:

And that's all from me today.. Stay tuned for further rescapes and more plants in the 25g and 14g.

Thanks for reading & watching :dance:

those baby axies are so cute! as for dividing a breeder net, maybe a piece of craft mesh would work?

 

[FallenAngel]

I could try that, but I dont want to tear the net or the babies could escape and get eaten.
I might just have to buy a net that is divided in 2.

 

[BettaFishMommy]

if you think your hands could be steady enough, how about sewing a piece of cloth across the middle of the breeder net? 100% polyester only though, and ensure it is rinsed super duper well first.

 

[FallenAngel]

That's an idea. I might give that a try once the holiday season has settled down a bit.

you new zealanders must have some pretty happening holidays! we're settled down in the 'january slump' here in igloo land already, lol.
