Well last night I was to tired to clean my tanks and feed the fish as I had planned. I figured they would be ok. Well the fish, plants and maybe the snail were more then OK. I came home tonight and found eggs on the glass the plants appear to have grown afew inches and my betta tank looks worse then ever. I think the betta tank changed the least but it's gotten as bad as my 36 gallon used to be.
Anyways on to the meat of this post.
I'm almost positive the eggs aren't from the snail it's way to small to have laid all of these eggs but then I have to wonder what did. Here's a picture of the eggs close up.
and a picture with a neon tetra to give you some scale
I think they might be from my cory cats but I'm not sure. Maybe the white clouds? Least likely the neons. Any ideas? I'm pretty sure it wasn't the snail but that's kind of my worst case scenario. So I want to make sure before I squish them. (I don't like snails)
The plants seem to have finally shown signs of rooting and have grown 2-4 inches in the last week! Maybe I noticed more tonight but I know for a fact that they weren't hitting the surface 2 days ago. I wish I had a before and after but this is how they looked tonight.
The ones toward the front were seperated from the bunches and are the ones that have taken off. The ones behind the pilars look pretty much like they did when I brought them home and are still bundled with rubber bands and the lead clips. (edit: forgot to note that the shorter ones tat look greener in front are fake. Left overs that filled it in before the plants took over) They're Camboba (?) can they really grow that fast? I found out that they grow to big for my tank but I wanted to get rid of my diatoms (Brown algea) so I didn't really care. I wanted the plants to compeat for food. It worked! Just to give you an idea how bad my tank would normally have looked before I added the plants here's my betta tank. It just started breaking out with the nasty stuff. Pretty much this how my 36 looked at the end of a week.
Anyways thanks in advance and pardon my typo's just a little over tired at the moment and I still need to clean the tanks LOL.
