Zebrafish Observation Diary 13

Thursday, March 24, 2022 Weather: cloudy and rainy Situation: A colleague asked me, "The leaves of the water ficus are a little dark, is it lacking in nutrients?" I got up and looked at the ficus in the fish tank, and there were indeed some black patches along the edges of the leaves, but only a little bit along the leaves, not too much, but still bright green overall. The zebrafish were in good shape, they got along well with the two new golden sharks and seemed to have become family. The only crab that survived liked to cower in the corner of the tank by itself, and I had to touch it with the air pump to make sure it was still alive.

How to Set up A Paludarium Tank

  Why there is only half water in the Paludarium tank? The answer is that the Paludarium can provide a perfect habitat for amphibians (such as crabs, frogs, and salamanders), while the water can be used for small marsh fish such as medaka and betta as their home. More importantly, many aquatic plants are semi-aquatic plants, with their roots in the water, but their leaves sticking out of the water. In this way, they can take advantage of abundant sunlight and carbon dioxide, while also obtaining a permanent source of water and nutrients. Paludarium can be made from any container that can hold water. Use  aquarium lights  to promote plant growth, use driftwood and rocks to create a land space, and combine aquatic plants and land plants to create an amazing miniature nature landscape. The clever use of built-in filters can create waterfalls, enhance the visual effects of paludarium , while providing additional humidity for land plants and ample space for the growth of wet-l...

  Wednesday, March 23, 2022 Weather: cloudy and rainy Situation: In the morning, my colleague brought in two golden sharks, which are said to be scientifically known as golden moss rats or China algae eater.  At first they were placed in a large transparent box, but later, considering that in order to let them adapt to the new environment in fish tank , they scooped some water from the tank and put it into the water basin where it had been resting for a few days, and then added some water from the original box and let them stay in the water basin for a few hours. At first, when they were put into the water basin, they were very lively and twisted around. I heard from a colleague that the other two golden sharks she kept at home almost jumped out of the tank at night, and they were very restless when they entered the water basin. Later, it took a lot of effort to get them out. After getting them out of the tank and putting them in the tank, probably because it was a completely ...
