September has been a productive month for the various plants… and those pesky snails. I seem to have hundreds since last month. I am looking for an organic solution to try to cull them, but there’s no immediate problem, the snails are keeping the algae levels on the gravel down and I'm sure a few of them are getting eaten.
Figure 1 – lots more plant growth around the bigger three rocks.
Figure 2 – spawning ‘cactus pot’ for the Apistogramma
Figure 3 – carpet of green rotala forming around the base of the large rocks. Male Apistogramma cacatuoides moving into the shot
Figure 4 – the whole picture. Lots more plant growth since June 2010.
