PJPS Posted March 16, 2023 Author Share Posted March 16, 2023 Preparing for the first WC on this system, so we checked the chemistry.Alk 7, ca 420, mag 1250. Havent tested nutrients yet, but a water change will easily reset the barely off chemistry. Given there are no fish in there yet, I’m not expecting the nutrients to be totally out of control. 2 Quote Link to comment
PJPS Posted March 16, 2023 Author Share Posted March 16, 2023 Full video to reference how it looked in March 2023 Judging by the pods all over the glass, this tank could support a fish comfortably at this point.

PJPS Posted March 17, 2023 Author Share Posted March 17, 2023 Saw NDA had these and decided it’d be the first fish in here… https://ndaquaculture.ca/collections/fish/products/starry-goby According to this, it’s primary diet is benthic invertebrates (pods), so it should be a good fit. I’ll keep feeding some meat in there to keep the nassarius fed. But this fish could probably live off the pod population in here judging from the glass. https://www.fishbase.se/summary/7200 2 Quote Link to comment
banasophia Posted March 18, 2023 Share Posted March 18, 2023 Cool looking fish! And looks like they are likely to eat frozen and pellets as well so hopefully it won’t be difficult to keep fed even if the pod population thins out in the future. 1 Quote Link to comment

And looks like they are likely to eat frozen and pellets as well so hopefully it won’t be difficult to keep fed even if the pod population thins out in the future. First Biota fish, expecting it to be tiny. So we put a baby gate across the weir comb so they don’t spend the night on the floss. Hopefully is arrives fat enough that it won’t be a problem and we can remove the gate. When the peppermint shrimp arrived we kept finding them in there so we devised a baby gate kinda thing with mesh and photography clamps (plastic at the ends). given he’s captive bread, he may never have eaten a pod. He’ll be fed like any other fish in our tanks. The pods are between meal snacks, so fish are never without food, our thinking is this might reduce fish stress overall. Our watchman goby eats at every meal, but he also sand sifts for pods in between. He’s ORA and eats anything meat based provided, still their natural behaviour is still sifting sand, or in this case pod sniping (they don’t require sand). 🤞🏻❤️🐟 1 Quote Link to comment
banasophia Posted March 18, 2023 Share Posted March 18, 2023 My mandarin was a biota captive bred fish… he was itty bitty when I got him, he was a great little fish and ate pellets from the surface in addition to live foods. 1 Quote Link to comment

banasophia Posted March 20, 2023 Share Posted March 20, 2023 So what’s the plan? I’d love to hear but looks like that video is over an hour long… Quote Link to comment
PJPS Posted March 21, 2023 Author Share Posted March 21, 2023 OMG cutest little fish… but he’s very fond of the cave currently and I’ve seen him for two seconds here and there. The gorgonian is very nice (Grube’s). The bumblebee snails are a decent size. Quality through and through. A+ for NDA in Edmonton, extremely good value for money, and absolutely not at the expense of quality. 1 Quote Link to comment
