Today, let me just share with you a brief view into my tank. Watching my white clouds go about their business. #fishkeeping #aquarium

Update on my wabenmuster pleco female. She‘s been in quarantine for a few weeks and has finally started eating nicely about a week and a half ago. I also don‘t have to blanch her zucchinis anymore for her to feed on them. Getting better! ☺️ #fishkeeping #aquarium

I feel like it‘s time for an update on the tanks. The bigger 72L might need a trim for the Helianthium bolivianum but I enjoy the jungle-vibes it gives and so do my kuhli loaches 😁 #fishkeeping #aquarium

I‘ve been struggling recently with my female Wabenmuster pleco. She‘s been getting bullied by the male and got very thin. So today I almost completely disassembled the tank and put her into quarantine where she‘ll hopefully get back some strength munching on some zucchini 🤞 #fishkeeping #aquarium

Today it‘s time to appreciate the undersides of some of my pets. I got this neat shot of the underside of my kuhli loach, as well as seeing a berried shrimp with the eyes of the shrimplets already visible. I‘ve only seen that once before. #fishkeeping #aquarium

Let me share with you today some pictures of my favorite fish: the emperor tetra (Nematobrycon palmeri). I love the shimmer and blue eyes on the males as well as the green eyes on the females. As a bonus: a Siamese algae eater. All of them are fairly old already at 4-5 years.

Today was waterchange day for me. My white clouds and the shrimp are excited for some fresh new water! :) Also, as a bonus, a picture of a sneaky kuhli loach. #fishkeeping #aquarium

I haven’t shared much about the plants in my tanks yet, so here is the beautiful flower of one of my Bucephalandra kedagang, as well as some newly forming leaves of my Anubis nana var. ‚pinto‘.

Not much has changed in my tanks but I still think they look quite nice :) #fishkeeping #aquarium

Managed to get this nice shot of my golden white cloud and thought I‘d share. Active fish like that are really hard to take good pictures of. #fishkeeping #aquarium

Been a while since I had anything to post and things have been busy, but I just got done with a nice and big maintenance session, so I‘ll get some more pictures in, when the lights are back on.

It‘s not always easy to find your favorite fish in your tank, so today I have a kuhli loach in hiding and my rarely-visible ‚wabenmuster‘ ancistrus for you! Do your fish have any favorite hiding spaces? #fishkeeping #aquarium

I don‘t really impulse buy fish but I saw these gold white cloud mountain minnows on Saturday and couldn‘t resist them longer than until today. They instantly got along with my resident white clouds, which was nice to see. :) #aquarium #fishkeeping

It‘s Monday, so I feel like posting one of my favorite fish of all time: my kuhli loaches. I just love watching these little wiggly fish. #fishkeeping #aquarium

Restocked the 180L tank and man, I forgot how stunning regular old neon tetras look. #fishkeeping #aquarium

My partner and I did some remodeling on the betta tank. Looks quite empty at the moment but give it a few weeks for everything to grow in and it‘ll look much better. Looking forward to seeing the crypts grown in! #fishkeeping #aquarium

Here‘s a decent picture of my partner‘s betta. We both usually prefer plakats but his colors were too nice to pass up. What are your favorite colors for a betta? #fishkeeping #aquarium
