Fry went free swimming last night. There are about 15 of them. Feeding vinegar eels and green water twice a day. The 2 breeding pairs have still...
Found 2 fry that have just hatched on the bottom of the tank. I am sure there are more but not easy to see among the moss. No more eggs from the 2...
Just had a look. No more eggs. Some of the eggs that I moved have started to fungus and go white. Others are still clear and looking good. The...

I like crypts as they as easy to grow and grow slowly so require minimal maintenance.
cryptocorynes - most of them require little light and are quite undemanding. I have mostly cryptocoryne parva but also a little petchii pink in...
