#planted nano tank

current vibe in the low tech rasbora/shrimp tank: chill.

I finally spotted one of the littler blue jelly babies perfectly posing right next to my biggest crystal red for scale, but this video demonstrates one of the many reasons that it’s hard to capture just how baby these baby shrimp are.

i.e. the extremely nosy emerald eye rasbora squad, who have arrived at the conclusion that my presence near the tank = food, and if for some reason I am not immediately giving them food, it is simply because I couldn’t see them before and they had best get my attention. (I literally fed them less than fifteen minutes before I tried to take this video.)

as promised, please witness:
