I was afraid Mr. Ice Cube had become violent towards the Corydoras. Luckily not. 😅
That said, I had an "incident" just 30 minutes ago.
I was feeding the fish in my bigger tank, and I didn't notice one Hyph. pulchripinnis jumped out... So I took a step back and heard a wet crunch beneath my heel. 😭
I am devastated to say the least. That's all. I feel I needed to vent.
Good luck on your breeding endeavours.

My Betta Milky jumped out 3 times so far and all 3 times I was close to the aquarium and returned him back. He is still alive. Mr. Ice Cube is the most mellow Betta I ever owned. Cheers Frank

[@angiebear8727]

Oh my gosh! Had a mystery snail escape a few nights ago. Got up to get a glass of water and didn’t turn my lights on and crunch.😢 it’s an awful feeling ❤

[@Poporin30]

How did you get your floaters to grow so well??

[@IMaqua]

I am not doing anything special here. They just grow. I would say having a lot of fish (and their waste) in this aquarium helps.

[@Poporin30]

Thanks!

[@jenpink4298]

This tank is beautiful! And it’s lovely to see that Mr. ice cube is doing so well! I love that he inspects everything, he is so smart and fierce❤

[@IMaqua]

Thank you very much! Mr. I've Cube inspects everything. Nothing enters his space without him checking on it.

[@elune43749]

Is milky still alive😢

[@IMaqua]

Yes he is. I will do an update video probably somewhere around end of October when he will be exactly 2 years old.

[@lorenzospina3174]

Wonderful aquarium 😍

[@IMaqua]

Thanks for visiting

[@gold-ghost-rider]

I really like the aquarium you make, it's as realistic as the rivers in nature

[@IMaqua]

Thanks a lot.

[@Native_ichthyology]

Perfect wild like🎉

[@IMaqua]

Thanks Mr. Frustrated.

[@IndoorEcosystem]

had to laugh at the 4 hour cory capture!
They are insanely fast!

[@IMaqua]

After chasing them for 30 minutes I gave up because there is not way I would ever catch them. So I designed a little trap with two nets barely touching the glass and I placed a food in front of the nets. After couple of hours I got them one by one.

[@IndoorEcosystem]

@@IMaqua that's a pretty good idea! Probably a lot less stress too

[@IMaqua]

Less stress for them and me...

[@IndoorEcosystem]

@@IMaqua So true! I'll have to keep this method in mind next time i need to move my corys

[@Hatschipuh123]

[@IMaqua]
