🐟 A Massive Upgrade for Star Lord! πŸ–¨οΈ

​My betta’s old floating ring was getting way too small for him. Today, I fired up the 3D printer and printed him a brand new floating bed! It does a much better job of keeping the floating plants back and gives him a nice, large clear window to rest near the surface.

​Do you use any custom 3D printed gear in your tanks? Let me know below! πŸ‘‡

πŸ’Έ We don't talk about the budget! πŸ˜‚
​If anyone asks, I got all these tanks used for twenty bucks. This hobby is basically a black hole for my wallet, but I wouldn't trade it for anything!

​Be honest, are you too scared to calculate how much you have spent on your aquariums so far? Let me know below! πŸ‘‡

🐟 They are free-swimming!

​It is always amazing to see how quickly they grow. When I first moved these Red Devil fry into the tray, they were all huddled and balled up together. Now they are officially free-swimming and utilizing the entire tray!

​How many fry do you think are in this single batch? Take a guess below! πŸ‘‡

🐟 It NEVER gets old! πŸ˜‚

🐟 Moving Day for the Fry!

​The Red Devil Koi fry are about a week old and finally free-swimming. I siphoned them out of the hatching stations and moved them into the main fry tray to start growing out. The batch from the bucket was moved too!

​Do you use a siphon to move your fry, or a net? Let me know below! πŸ‘‡

🐟 The most dramatic fish in the hobby! πŸ˜‚

​If you have ever kept Discus, you know exactly how accurate this is. Miss one water change and they act like it's the end of the world.

🐟 The best hack for feeding tiny fry! πŸ–ŒοΈ

​If you breed fish, you know how hard it can be to portion out powdered food without overfeeding. I use a small paintbrush to tap Aquarium Co-Op Magic Small Fish Feed right into the fry tray! I learned this technique from Dean at Dean's Fishroom.

​Have you ever tried this trick, or do you have a different method for feeding your fry? Let me know below! πŸ‘‡
