Why local pickup is underrated
Sold a breeding pair for pickup today, buyer saw the parents, the rack, the water. Ten minute conversation beat fifty messages.

My QT setup, steal it
Three bare tens on a rack, sponge filters seeded in the sump year round, clear bins for meds. Total cost under 150 and it has saved my display more times than I can count.
Does anyone else quarantine snails
Got burned by hitchhiker leeches once. Now even nerites do two weeks in a bin. Paranoid or correct?
CO2 or no CO2?
Hot take: 80% of 'I can't grow plants' posts are light problems, not CO2 problems. Fix your photoperiod before buying a regulator.
Rotala colorata finally colored up
Dropped nitrates to 5ppm and cranked the light for 3 weeks. Pink tops all over. Photos don't do it justice.
