One thing I will say though is that if it's super busy, and you have juveniles, they will eat and survive, but they may not grow big. Just a heads up. If you want to fatten your L46s up, you need them in their own tank.

Yes, contrary to popular belief, fish and survive and stay small, and as such, size is not the best indicator of age (unless it's wildcaught)
I am feedin them twice on weekdays and multiple times (small meals) on weekends when I have the time. Not rushing them to grow them up, am just focusing on the water parameters especially the nitrate for now. Will ketapang essence be good for them (cories and L46)?

if you don't mind the brownish water, they will definitely benefit from the ktp essence. they help reduce stress levels afaik. just remember to give them a good wash before dumping into your tank if you are using the leaves.

I am using the bottled essence, hence doing away with the extraction from the ketapang leaves. The tank water is always yellowish and I really like the look of it Gives people the feeling of looking into a mangrove swamp and at the plants and fishes within it!

Smile Change of substrate

Dear bros, I have bought two packets of sand from GEX to replace the current river sand (bigger pellet sized). Are there anything that I should be looking out for? Murky water permissible? PH spike?

I await for your advise. Thank you.

Yup, got it today at the betta tank area.

should be C.venuzuelanus 'black' or C.aeneus 'black'. If this 2 are seperate variants, although i think they are the same, so should be them
