Carbon Planting Scissors Wave is a patented carbon-planting technology that uses special scissors-shaped tools to plant seeds in soil. The scissor-shaped tool is designed to penetrate soil, creating a narrow slit in the soil where a seed can be placed. The tool is then used to form a wave-like pattern in the soil, creating a pocket around the seed so that water and nutrients can reach it easily. This technology is used to help farmers and gardeners plant seeds in areas with difficult soil conditions and can help increase the rate of survival for the planted seed.
Carbon planting tweezers are a type of tweezers made from carbon steel and designed for planting and harvesting plants, flowers, and herbs. They come in two varieties: straight and curved. The straight tweezers have a straight, thin, sharp edge that is perfect for precision planting and harvesting. The curved tweezers have a curved shape that provides better leverage and control when planting and harvesting, making it easier to work with a variety of plants and herbs. Both types of tweezers are made of a durable carbon steel material that ensures a long lasting, rust-resistant tool that will last for many years.

Hydrocotyle Leucocephala originates from the wet marshlands of South America , and also holds the name Brazilian Pennywort. It grows well very well submerged and loves temperatures to be between 18-24C. A fast-growing vine-like aquarium plant with kidney-shaped leaves, Hydrocotyle Leucocephala survives in tanks where other plants fail! It thrives in tanks with or without Co2 added and requires only medium light. In high lights it can become rampant, lower lights make it easier to control. Hydrocotyle Leucocephala looks beautiful intertwined with driftwood. Its delicate leaves are a favourite climbing place for shrimps. Hydrocotyle Leucocephala works particulary well in tanks with Anubias as the two kinds of aquarium plants require similar conditions.

The Cardinal Tetra is a popular freshwater fish that many people enjoy keeping in their home aquariums. Cardinal tetras will quickly become one of the favourite fish in your aquarium. These tiny, schooling fish are hardy and playful—so much so that they can outsmart even seasoned aquarists! Cardinal tetra is a friendly fish that shares space generously with its tank mate. While they can be hard to breed in captivity, these brightly coloured fish stay active and are available in multiples colours of red, yellow, and orange.
Habitat
The cardinal tetra is most commonly seen in slow-moving, shallow water. They mainly eat small animals on plants roots and leaf litter but have been known to take live prey as well. The Cardinal Tetra (Paracheirodon axelrodi) is a fish that has been around for centuries. Originating from the rivers in South America, specifically the upper Orinoco and to the Rio Negro River. These little guys are fascinating because they usually only live about 2-3 years due to their small size but have still managed to thrive since then.
Colour
A Cardinal tetra is not only beautiful, but it's an excellent fish for almost any aquarium. Consider these benefits; they're small and sturdy enough that they can live in a 20-litre tank. They are tolerant of water quality fluctuations and the temperatures found in your home or office environment. Plus, they grow up to just 5cm long, so their accommodations will be easy as pie! And while we know you'll want to buy this beauty some friends once he gets settled in his new digs, don't worry about other types of fish bothering him—he'd rather eat plants than other aquatic life forms!
Potential Tank mates for Cardinal Tetras
Cardinal tetras are one of the most popular fish species. They should always be kept in large schools and prefer to swim around with others, even if they're not their kind! If you want your tank to have the perfect balance between lively company and a serene environment for some time alone, then these guys will become part of it. Potential tank mates that may be suitable other than tetras are Danios, Rasbora, and Dwarf Gouramis. If the companion fish has a big mouth enough to swallow the cardinal tetra, it is not a suitable tank mate.
Cardinal Tetra Care
There are a lot of reasons to purchase a larger aquarium. One of the most important is that Cardinal Tetras live better in bigger tanks! These fish can be seen living happily and healthily in tanks with 20 litres, but we always recommend going as big as you possibly can if you wish to enjoy the fish schooling to full effect. Cardinal Tetras are delicate and need mature tanks with soft acidic water to thrive. They can't survive in a tank that's only been set up for an hour, so use caution if you're new! Luckily they love having stable conditions because it lets them live longer lives without getting sick as often. The best pH is below 6, while the hardness should stay below 4 dGH (decigrams per litre) since high levels of minerals make their health deteriorate quickly. Finally, this species loves warmer temperatures but does well from 23°C to 27 °C. We recommend having Floating Plants on their tanks; not only do they moderate the light, but floating aquatic plants also help with CO2 and oxygen levels in the water.
Diet and Feeding
Cardinal Tetra will eat most foods, but be sure to feed them 75% of high-quality flake food, so they stay healthy! Make sure to provide live foods or frozen snacks for your little guys, including brine shrimp and bloodworms that are high in protein. If you're going to feed them all day, try offering three minutes' worth of food every feeding--their little mouths can't handle large pieces very well.
Gender Identification
Males and females show few apparent differences between the sexes, with female cardinal tetras having a deeper body than males with an almost round belly. The hook protruding from the male's anal fin tells other prospective mates they are mature enough to breed!
Breeding Cardinal Tetras
Breeding cardinal tetras is a difficult task. But if you are persistent, success will be within your grasp! The female cardinal tetra produces eggs when she feels the need to reproduce - typically during evenings and late nights from 130-500 eggs. A separate breeding tank with stable water conditions, a pH of 5.0 to 6.0, and very soft water 3-5 dGH or below is essential for success.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What is the Difference between Neon Tetra and Cardinal Tetra?
The most obvious difference between the Cardinal and Neon Tetras is their coloration. While both are beautiful in their own right, it's hard to ignore that for Neons, only half of its body sports a vibrant red stripe while Cardinals have an equally colourful anal fin and gills as well as whole-body stripes. The main differences between these two fish types come down primarily to colouring: one has less than dazzling colours on about 50% of his body (Neon), where the other will stun you with brilliant blues, greens, yellows--even oranges! Of course, some structural distinctions like fins, but we are all more interested in how they look when swimming around our tanks anyway.
Can a tetra live without a filter and heater?
A tetra can live without a filter yes, a heater not so much. Below 24 degree's C your tetra will not be happy campers, however a regular water change can suffice in lieu of a filter.
The Floating antler-fern, or Ceratopteris pteridoides, is distributed from the American subtropics and tropics from south eastern U.S. to South America and is also reported from Southeast Asia.
As a floating aquarium plant, Ceratopteris pteridoides needs above all a plentiful nutrient supply and good lighting. The favourable temperatures lie between about 18 and 30 °C. Nutrient deficiency or imbalance may lead to pale new leaves and poor growth. Under favourable conditions this fern may get large within a quite short period. If the leaf rosettes have become too large for the tank, they can be replaced by some of the many young plantlets that develop on old, also detached leaves.
This large, decorative water sprite species looks best in open tanks where is provides shelter for the aquarium inhabitants.
As a species of fern, Ceratopteris cornuta is a great choice for beginners as it is low maintenance and easy to grow. With its characteristic layered and feathery leaves, it adds a beautiful natural touch to any aquarium. This plant can also help oxygenate the water and absorb excess nutrients, promoting a healthier aquatic environment.

To keep your Clown Killifish happy, their habitat should be well lit, water parameters excellent, and a gentle current from the filter set. If you give your clown Killies these conditions, they can live for 5 years!
Rocket Killie
Clown Killies are also known as rocket killies and banded panchax. Coming from western Africa, they are found in southern Guinea, Liberia, and Sierra Leone. The Clown Killifish is a peaceful micro-predator that feeds primarily on tiny flying insects and invertebrates.
😊 Can we expect some clowning around?
Clown Killifish are shy (they are rather small) but they will become more playful when in a group, so expect some interesting schooling behaviour. They even enjoy jumping out of the water for some fun! Make sure to keep their tank lid tightly fitted so that these fish can have as much space as possible to live and play around without the risk of an excursion on the floor.
😊 A unique look
Clown Killifish are also called Rocket Killies because they resemble tiny rockets. In addition, they have torpedo-shaped bodies that help them swim up for food, and they even appear as a fishy clown with round heads and spade-like tails.
😊 Keeping Clown Killifish in the Aquarium
You can choose to house Clown Killies in larger community tanks that are already occupied by other species. The downside is the fish won't reproduce as often if they're placed with another type of inhabitant, so you should know what kind of goal you have for keeping these types of fishes before giving them a home.
😊 Are these fish easy to breed?
If you have a male and female in your tank, don't worry about mating. Just maintain healthy water parameters to keep them alive, and they will breed when it's the right time every month! Clown Killies are prolific parents who can produce up to 25 fry per cycle - twice each month until their population numbers get out of hand!
😊 Feeding your Clown Killies
Clown Killies are carnivores that need a lot of meaty protein, but they can only eat tiny portions. They lay in wait for the insects to land on the water's surface and then eat their prey - or what could be considered for them a tasty meat morsel!
Ideally, in captivity, we can try mimicking what can be in the natural environment: baby brine shrimp 1-2 times a day should do it!
There is advice on other foods on the internet but realistically, sticking with brine shrimp for a treat is good enough and achievable without spending a fortune.

Ancistrus, also known as bushynose or bristlenose catfish, is a genus of nocturnal freshwater fish in the family Loricariidae of order Siluriformes, native to freshwater habitats in South America and Panama. The common Bristlenose is commonly captive bred appears impossible to identify to species primarily due to a lack of original locality information but also because tens of undescribed congeners exist.
Ancistrus species show all the typical features of the Loricariidae. This includes a body covered in bony plates and a ventral suckermouth. The feature most commonly associated with the genus are the fleshy tentacles found on the head in adult males; females may possess tentacles along the snout margin but they are smaller and they lack tentacles on the head. Tentacules, tentacles directly associated with odontodes, develop on the pectoral fin spine of the males of some species.

The blacktop corydoras (Corydoras acutus) is a tropical freshwater fish belonging to the subfamily Corydoradinae of the family Callichthyidae. It originates in inland waters in South America, and is found in the Amazon River basin in Ecuador and Northern Peru. It was described by Edward Drinker Cope in 1872.
The fish will grow in length up to 1.7 inches (4.4 centimeters). It lives in a tropical climate in water with a 6.0–8.0 pH, a water hardness of 2–25 dGH, and a temperature range of 77–83 °F (25–28 °C). It feeds on worms, benthic crustaceans, insects, and plant matter. It lays eggs in dense vegetation and adults do not guard the eggs. The female holds 2–4 eggs between her pelvic fins, where the male fertilizes them for about 30 seconds. Only then does the female swim to a suitable spot, where she attaches the very sticky eggs. The pair repeats this process until about 100 eggs have been fertilized and attached.
The blacktop corydoras is of commercial importance in the aquarium trade industry.
Corydoras Adolfoi: One of the Most Mysterious Fish in the Aquarium World
OVERVIEW:
These flashy and peaceful little freshwater fish are a rare find in the aquarium world. They have been making appearances for only as long as any one can remember, but no one is quite sure why they’re so elusive!
The dolfo's cory cat fish (lat. Catfish Corydoras adolfoi) might be small-sized, brightly colored, and usually very calm when kept in an aquarium—but this recent newcomer to tanks has less popularity than other species of its own genus.
Catfish are the perfect nocturnal creatures. They like to stay at the bottom of an aquarium and can only be seen in their natural habitat during nighttime hours because they're so small-featured! Some catfish, such as Glass Catfishes and Upside Down Catfish that reside on top surfaces of water tanks from time to time, have evolved a different strategy for survival than most other types of fish who live at or near the ground level.
HABITAT:
It seems that this Corydoras endemic is likely encountered only in the Rio Negro tributaries, São Gabriel da Cachoeira municipality, Brazil. However many sources state that these fish species are found living in slow-moving blackwater tributaries and flooded forest areas - where their water has a special tea color because it's been so rich with tanning substances for years now.
SIZE AND LIFE SPAN OF CORYDORAS ADOLFOI 3CM:
Corydoras Adolfoi is a unique fish that can live up to 5 years. Females are about five and half centimeters long, while the males are just slightly shorter in length at four and three quarters of a centimeter. These little guys have no teeth or scales but they do know how to defend themselves with their thick skin!
Corydoras adolfoi measures an average size for females around five and one-half centimeters long whereas males measure approximately 4 3/4 cm on average making them relatively small in comparison; however these aquatic creatures prove fierce defenders thanks to their tough textured skin which has neither teeth nor scales.
COLOR:
Adolfo's Catfish has a beautiful coloring that resembles the one of corydoras panda, but it is unlike this fish because Adolfo’s catfish also holds an orange spot located between its dorsal and eyes. There is a black strip across its back with another going across both of his eyes.
BEHAVIOR:
Adolfo's catfish are not only active during the day but they also have a variety of behaviors. Catfish can spend most of their time on the tank bottom looking for food, swim to the water surface in order to take some air or be found deep within layers of medium-sized fish.
TANK MATES:
Catfish are group animals, so to make them feel most comfortable they need their species around. To create a complete fish school you will need at least 8 different types of catfish! If your tank is smaller than 500 gallons it may be difficult or even impossible for any one type of catfish to thrive on its own because the competition between other fish in the environment would drive that particular species away from an area and into extinction due to isolation.
As you’ve understood, the best tank mates for your fish are its relative species. Keep in mind that various Corydoras can't be kept together and they should stay in one school so Adolfo's catfish won't fight with panda corys. If these fishes aren't aggressive towards Adolfo's catfish then it will be happy to share your home peacefully as well!
FEEDING:
With Corydoras, it's all about the bottom of the tank. These fish will eat most food that sinks to there. You'll want to supplement sinking algae pellets with flake foods, dried foods or other sinking goods like catfish pellets for a complete diet-scheme. Though these animals do have their carnivorous side, they also love Bloodworm and Brine Shrimp as treats!
GENDER DIFFERENCES:
corydoras adolfoi's females are admittedly larger than their male counterparts. The difference in size is especially pronounced when it comes to the reproductive fish species of this genus, with the female being much bigger and more dominant during mating rituals.
BREEDING:
Breeding is an interesting process that can be a little difficult. One of the most important aspects to breeding Corydoras fish for example, you should put one female and two males into separate tanks with high-quality food.
When it's time to breed your new favorite pet in a tank full of water, start by putting just one female fish together with two male ones inside their own individual containers filled up completely from top to bottom every day while providing them feeders packed tight with protein rich foods such as beef heart or shrimp pieces twice per day ad libitum (ad liberally) until they become ravenously hungry within 8 hours after being fed each time because this tells you that they are ready for action!
Adolfo's catfish may lay eggs right on the tank bottom, but it is recommended to add some lobed leaves or a synthetic shower pouf.
Female fish can start laying their eggs quickly after puberty and mating; this process starts with them getting rounded up due to pregnancy. To make sure your female fish stays healthy during her journey of spawning, you should have water that remains cold at all times in addition to increasing its flow simultaneously because they're not able get enough oxygen otherwise as they are very sensitive when pregnant.
Both the egg incubation time and hatching are dependent on ambient temperature with a typical range of 3-4 days. The larvae's ability to eat their yolk sacs enables them to start feeding themselves, which is when live food can be introduced into the diet such as brine shrimp or other similar foods.
Most breeders add some methylene blue or any substances that help prevent fungal infection in order for eggs to hatch properly without being harmed during this process after about three four days at most depending on environmental temperatures.
FAQ
Is Corydoras adolfoi and Corydoras duplicareus the same?
Corydoras adolfoi and Corydoras duplicareus are both a type of catfish with different adaptations, but they do have one noticeable difference: serrations on the posterior edge of their pectoral fin spine that can only be seen if you shine light from underneath it to see them up close. Corydoras adolfoi tends to be more slender than its counterpart while also having narrower black bands; however, like other genetically related fish species such as humans or sled dogs (or any dog breed for that matter) there is variation in how these two types look depending on where they live because water quality influences weight gain and slimness just like diet does!

It is a very animated, distinctively marked schooling fish that is perfect for the nano, community, and planted aquarium.
The Smudge Spot Cory Catfish is a very peaceful schooling fish that is compatible with most nano aquarium animals, including dwarf cichlids and angelfish. It might prey on some smaller dwarf shrimp, but is safe with larger shrimp and most other peaceful ornamental invertebrates. It is a classic scavenger and will inhabit and feed at the aquarium floor, which should be comprised of sand or smooth gravel. Very coarse substrate can damage its delicate barbels and underbelly, so it should be kept in an aquarium with sand or very smooth gravel substrate. This fish is otherwise undemanding as it will accept most dry,frozen, and live foods. It is adaptable to most tropical freshwater conditions as long as standard regular maintenance is performed and sudden changes are avoided.

The three-stripe corydoras is a freshwater fish that lives in the Amazon River basin and coastal rivers of South America. They are not aggressive fish, but they will defend their territory by chasing away other fishes with an impressive display of fins waving back and forth.
When you are looking for a fish to keep in your aquarium, consider the three stripe corydoras. It is an interesting and peaceful species that can grow up to 2.5 inches (6.1 centimeters) long!
The three-stripe corydoras live in water with pH levels between 6-8 as well as temperatures ranging from 72-79 degrees Fahrenheit, which makes it suitable for most homes' environments without needing specific care requirements or changes of temperature over time like some other animals might need.
This type of animal feeds on worms, benthic crustaceans, insects, and plant matter among others so there will never be any food shortages when keeping one indoors either - perfect if you're trying not just to want something nice but also easy.
COLOR:
The colour of this fish is not what it seems. The underside is pale white, while the top side has a greenish tint to its skin that sparkles in the water. Three long stripes run along their sides and five vertical striped lines extend from head to tail on both fins for an amazing effect when swimming in open waters!
BEHAVIOR:
This shy fish is an interesting creature to observe, and planning a large group of three-band Corydoras will help them become more confident. They are said to be quite fearful because they find comfort in the presence of their fellow tankmates as well!
COHABITATION:
Corydoras trilineatus is a three-lined Corydoras species that has until recently been underappreciated in the aquarium world. They are very peaceful and never disturb other inhabitants, making them an ideal fish for anyone who wants to keep more than one type of animal together without any fighting or risk to their personal safety.
BREEDING:
When you want to breed your corydoras, make sure they are at a stage where their eggs have the best chance of hatching. Cory catfish can get pregnant any time between 3-8 years old but it's typically after age 5 when females produce bigger and better quality fry!
Before this point in life, young female fish will still be able to give birth on occasion with some success or may lay infertile eggs which are more likely than fertile ones to become infected by a fungus that turns them into jellyfish looking deflated blobs.
AQUARIUM:
Corydoras prefer to inhabit tanks with rough surfaces and strong water currents for feeding. They can often be found near the bottom of a tank grazing on algae, detritus, or other filter-feeding organisms like shrimp.
With small mouths but voracious appetites, these little fish are perfect for eating whatever gets stuck in your aquarium filters!
FEEDING:
Corydoras trilineatus is not difficult to feed, but it's always important to consider its preferred food. For perfect health, vary this basic diet with contributions in plants and invertebrates like tubifex or daphnia. And for the ultimate treat? Give them vase worms!
If your Corydoras are struggling because other fish eat their meal faster than they can get at it during the day when lights are on- make sure you distribute meals only after dark so that all of your aquarium occupants have an equal chance of eating well without feeling threatened by one another.

Crushed Coral Rubble is used in an acidic tank to buffer the pH to close to 7.
Although not needed for low pH species, it is a good way to buffer your tank so your tank doesn't pH crash.
Remember a pH crash will cause burns to your fish which will result in death.
If you have a African or Marine tank then Coral Rubble is essential.

Shrimp Snow is a type of shrimp food that is designed to provide a balanced and nutritious diet for freshwater aquarium shrimp. It is a fine, powdery substance that is made up of a blend of high-quality ingredients, including plant-based proteins, vitamins, minerals, and other essential nutrients.
Shrimp Snow is a popular choice among shrimp keepers because it is easy to feed and can be consumed by both adult and juvenile shrimp. The fine texture of the powder allows it to spread easily throughout the aquarium, making it accessible to all the shrimp in the tank. Shrimp Snow can also help to promote healthy growth, coloration, and reproductive health in shrimp.
One of the benefits of using Shrimp Snow as a shrimp food is that it is specifically designed to meet the nutritional needs of freshwater shrimp. It contains high levels of spirulina, a blue-green algae that is rich in protein, vitamins, and minerals. Spirulina is a natural source of carotenoids, which can enhance the coloration of shrimp and make them more vibrant.
In addition to spirulina, Shrimp Snow contains other plant-based proteins, such as wheat germ, alfalfa, and soy protein, which are easily digestible by shrimp. It also contains vitamins and minerals that are essential for shrimp health, such as vitamin C, calcium, and iron.
To use Shrimp Snow as a shrimp food, it is typically added to the aquarium in small amounts, several times a day. The powder can be sprinkled directly into the water or added to a feeding dish. It is important to feed shrimp only what they can consume within a few minutes to avoid overfeeding and water quality issues.
Overall, Shrimp Snow is a high-quality shrimp food that can provide a balanced and nutritious diet for freshwater aquarium shrimp. It is easy to feed and can help to promote healthy growth, coloration, and reproductive health in shrimp.
