fat little buggers :) always on the move too. i think i witnessed some trying to mate a few days ago. kept seeing one run into the other making a T like some sites say they do for breeding. but see no eggs and no idea if it was just them playing around and accidentally swimming into one and other or an attempt at baby makin o.0

leaning more twards accident tho. iv had them 10 days now. and arnt scared of me or the betta [tho scared one while wiping off watermark on glass earlier lol] seem perfectly fine imo :P maybe strangelly un-scared but fine =D

lol yay!
get ur cfl soon.... some unwanted algae often comes with light of a wrong color temperature.

I grew plants fine with a 3200k before... only problem? black beard algae on all my slow growing plants

yuck. i hav a normal coil bulb. rly tiny like 15wt. no K ratings. its giving my plants light along with some sun i let in thru window. but m hoping to get cfl in morning [or well later actually] only algae iv had sofar was lil bits of brown befor i switched to the coil. when i still had the incandecent bulb. sense thn i knew brown algae was lower light so i let curtain be open a bit and it stopped appearing. few days after no sign of algae got these lil cuties. no sign of anything. except bubbles in my tank [obv from filter breaking bettas nests or him being a goof and randomly bowing him a bubble tornado again]

so curiosity here. worst case scenario of me not puting in some stems quickly besides having pointless soil? o.0
