hopefully i see some benefits in the tiger and blue bolt tanks, there the ones with lower survival rates, the crs tank is still exploding, i moved some moss around to try and get some more light on the brownie ghosts and it was full of tiny little crs haha.

i added a nice mbb male in to there tank and as i find the standard / sh it male bb's i'm culling them to the bro tank. so fingers crossed the mbb gets jiggy with the girls and the new blood helps with there survival rates! 

any day now i expect the Bloody Mary gal to drop her first baby's!  The rest of the girls are saddled up and look to be in great condition so they should berry up when they molt. I'm curious to see there survival rates compared to the tigers in the same tank.

Just an update and a few pics :) im testing using some suction cups on chola wood to move more moss/ ferns off the ground seems to be working atm. 

I found a bunch of the native fern that i won at one of the auctions hiding down the back of one of my tanks so i tide it up, ive really started to like mini ferns and I've rediscovered my love of moss ^.^

Very nice. I still think you have more space on the rack to add more tanks! Haha. :crazy:

Moss are so confusing and some are so difficult to ID. I received some christmas moss a few months ago and it is growing very differently to the christmas moss I already own. Now I don't know which is the real christmas moss. :(

I recently got some anchor, pearl, rose and willow moss compliments from a good bloke. If I grow them successfully, would you like to trade for some cameroon moss? What is quill willow btw?
