My little forgotten Mosquito Rasbora and Schrimps Tank


More information’s about the Mosquito Rasbo Fish here. I had 8 Fishes called Mosquito Rasbora (Boraras brigittae) swimming in one of my forgotten fish tanks and I decided that it would be better to buy some more because I want to clean and redesign the tank soon. I think they really love to swim in a swarm. That´s why I bought 8 more of them yesterday. Therefore I can count 16 Mosquito Rasbora in my little 54 Liter tank now. The fish tank is not maintained much. I just used osmose water and the GH/KH is round about 3 and … Continue reading My little forgotten Mosquito Rasbora and Schrimps Tank

Bird Sand, Suggar, a mysterious Pirate and a Fish? This should make you nosy!


It´s fun to see, what my mother comes up with when she is bored. Today I visited my Mom and she was happy and said “Hey I want to show you something and hear your opinion!”. We went to the kitchen and soon I noticed she painted something with suggar on the Countertop… I dont know. First I had to laugh because this looks pretty much like a evil cartoony Pirate. Maybe it just did remind me to the Pirate LeChuck from the Point and Click Game called Monkey Island which I played much when I was younger. But in … Continue reading Bird Sand, Suggar, a mysterious Pirate and a Fish? This should make you nosy!

Abstract Photo of Riccia fluitans Moss in my Fish Tank.


I thought this is a Photo I must upload and add to a Blogpost. I found that Photo somewhat abstract. I took this Photo when I opened my Fish Tank. This is a Plant, to be exact this is a Moss called Riccia fluitans and it is floating on the Water Surface. Some time ago I did place this Moss on stones with a Hairnet. Many people do it. The thing is it will grow and after some time you wont see the Hairnet anymore and the Stone will keep this Moss underwater and it looks like crazy green Moss … Continue reading Abstract Photo of Riccia fluitans Moss in my Fish Tank.
