Yeah too long, even spiderwood with all the thin branches takes a while 75e8931ae37b48a1f15e6ced00dfd2cc.jpg

Another interesting read! Excuse my skulking through old posts here but, did anyone actually try casual experimenting with this thesis?

I tried, but it was too difficult without a multitude of tanks. Each with a different temperature and one control tank. Each tank will have a male and female, with no mixing of babies from the other parents.

I Don't have enough tanks for that. Mine are all occupied with shrimp.

You have obviously identified the issue here which needs fixing. GET MORE TANKS! ?

      The duckweed can certainly be a pain!  I think the trade-off is that it is doing a great job mopping up all the nutrients

      Always great to get an update! Good to see the ember tetras and shrimp are doing well still. That duckweed is vile stuff (looks ok when only a small bit in an aquarium) and so difficult to get rid of once in an aquarium and over runs so quickly?

      Orange poop shoots anyone??

      Some things will break down quicker than others, so leaves are usually blanched or cooked first so the shrimp can devour them easier, otherwise they may need a few days to soften a bit.

      Thank you!  Haha love it! Interesting my guys went nuts for the nasturtium leaf and flower and left the spinach! 😄  I have my own big organic veggie garden, so they have lots of different things to enjoy in it! I have broad beans, Brussels sprouts, peas and snow peas coming. I wonder if they would enjoy those? I also have broccoli, cauliflower, kale, Cabbage, rainbow chard, silverbeet, spinach etc. We also have 3 big organic mulberry trees (white and red) and we have a huge number of herbs too. When I saw the Rosemary flowers I wondered will they get purple or blue poop?! Haha! I also have a big strawberry tower. I heard of people feeding strawberry tops...I wonder if they'll eat the leaf? I know guinea pigs love strawberry leaves. It's now kinda become a big fun science experiment! Haha!  Haha I didn't want to say about blue poop but that's why I asked cause I want to see if they get a blue or purple poop chute! Haha! 🤣🤣🤣 It's funny, right now there is orange species of poop floating around the tank! 🤣🤣🤣
