Yada yada from Justikanz

Arrgh!... The whole update was deleted JUST before I was about to copy the text and publish... Dunno how it happened... Got to re-write... *Grr...*...

Ok, it had been more than 1 week since I last posted... Today no pics but allow me to post some updates:

1) The office female betta tank was a disaster... The water was too cold (~21C) and the females all kena ich (white spot) over a weekend... Suspect it all started from a poor smaller one who was attacked viciously by her tankmates... Anyway, only 3 of the 7 survived, together with the khuli loach... They are all of the wild colouration... Still pretty, though. Will be giving them to a colleague now that they had been aclimatised to the cold water and recovered completely from the white spot... They are now very curious... And always trying to pick a fight among themselves... Very lian-like... :) Will convert the tank to a shrimp tank to make use of the cold water temperature... Yes, I am very much into shrimps now... :)

2) 1 CFB newt went into hiding in my vivarium... Think it probably escaped thru an opeing at the back caused by the warping of the acrylic tank cover... If it does not appear soon, it will probably dehydrate or starved to death... The remaining 2 CFBs and 2 PTs are very contented with their home...

3) My reed frog is growing well... I am feeding it 3 mealworms every 2-3 days now... Previously, I used to place 3 worms in a bowl and it will take 1 every 1-2 days and then accidentally drown the rest, wasting the worms' lives... Now it takes all... I feel like rescuing another 2 more reeds, but too lazy to buy tuibifex daily as the young reeds need to be fed daily and I cannot find small emalworms or pin-head crickets for them... Will see how... :p

4) I got more plants... :) 1 quite unusual... The leaves like 4 leaved clover... Very pretty... Will be planting in my 4footer... Will post pics when ready...

Ok lah, tired of writing... third time liao... better dun write too much! :oops:... Will post pics next time... :)

Thanks for reading! See ya!...
