  • Blister our Cross River Puffer Fish has settled in nicely and already start to pack on some size.
    He single handedly has almost solved the Malaysian Trumpet Snail problem in the Piranha Aquarium... So now we need to try some new foods.
    Let's see if he enjoys the new food options.
    I hope you'll join me.
    Thanks for watching.

      Check out the video that just came out last weekend entitled Got Snails. I must of released them backwards but I mention the reasoning behind the name

    I just got a cross river today and I need more plants in his tank what did you find that works good

      Hair algae somewhat took over his ‘smaller’ tank in m assuming die to the large volume of organic waste. I’m shortly moving him to a much larger Congo community aquarium, 160 gallons

      @themadaquarist  Před 9 měsíci +1

      so far: earthworms, mussel meat, will also eat the meat if i start cracking a fresh mussel as well, every possible type of snail, nightcrawlers, market shrimp raw, chopped fish (smelts) and hoping to find at one of the asian markets some crawfish soon
