Previous tank :-/
Gonna make this a journal of my grow-in tank for the group of 6 aurantis I added yesterday. 120 x 45 x 45. Heavily planted tank. Will add some pictures of the setup
Let’s hope no fungus strikes! And let’s hope it’s a good mix of males and females. Looks like a bunch of females so far but there’s deffo 1 male.
They immediately began feeding which was encouraging. Last batch didn’t eat anything from the get go. These guys ate all 100 of my yellow Neocaridina overnight and then today devoured the 10 super Morio worms I dumped in and made a total mess of my crystal clear water in an instant!
They’ve been kept at 28c in the LFS for the past week and I’ll be gradually dropping the tank temp to 23 over the next week.
I have a few basic questions
1. I’m planning on feeding every other day while temps are at 23c. How many super worms should each fish eat per feeding session?
2. How long do the winter and summer Seasons last? 2 months at 25c and 2 months at 18c with a slow transition between or should the temperature changes be more pronounced and fast, ie 4-5 months held at 25c and 18c with quicker transitions between?
