Hi all ! ive had my tank setup for over a month n a half now i think... Anyways i have 6 barbs and a cabomba plant in a little clay pot and i got it from the aquarium when i got my tiger barbs as i new they like that plant...
So they have been nipping it and eating it like normal and brushing past it and all that witch is fine but it has caused the plant to loose a few of its stems. It has now got 5 on it and has i think sprouted a few more and all that .. I was half way through getting a breeding tank set up and i thought i could put the ones that has come free from the butch and their own pots, One of them came loose a few days earlyer and i cleaned my tank out and put it in a cup of water .. lol you will see in the photos witch one that is but i wanted to know if it will survive or just slowly die off also the other one that was like an hour out of water and repotted is doing way better
I have put it in the breeding tank with an o2 supply and the same setup as the ones they came from any ideas...
Over view of both of them...
I didnt know what to plant them in so i put the stem all the way to the bottom of the pot and filled with fine gravel from a tank and then put some bigger pebbles on the top as you can see ? will that make a difference ? i just didnt have fake lead to weigh them down thats all
^ thats the dodgey one the stems have slight browning one them? its not like i forgot to water them ..
This is the healthy one ^ i think it is healthy ish anyway ?
I need a little tap in the right direction please guys n gals
