Description: Kartoffel is a wild betta species called Mahachai betta. Making Brine Shrimp / Get rid of cyanobacteria. The spinach started out so well, then the growth slowed down. I’m not sure if the spinaches will make it. I had high hopes for them. I suppose I’ll try something else if they don’t work out. I used 35% hydrogen peroxide on the cyanobacteria. There was an imbalance b/c I removed the sweet potatoes. The sweet potatoes were doing a lot of the heavy lifting in the tank. You can’t buy 35% HP these days online. I think the strongest you can buy is 12%. I suppose you can also use the usual 3%, but you might have to use a little more. You might want to check the local pharmacy if they have anything higher. 12% Hydrogen Peroxide amzn.to/2ImX7Ip Patreon: patreon.com/footheflowerhorn Youtube Member: youtube.com/channel/UC3Kk8tvhHkWMMfKBb0q0X9g/join Paypal: paypal.me/footheflowerhorn Merch: teespring.com/stores/foo-store Making Brine Shrimp: Brine shrimp eggs: amzn.to/2L0Y4rG 100% deep sea salt amzn.to/2YVeiFd (I use deep sea salt, but I think other salts will work, too. Something like aquarium salt.) Brine shrimp net: amzn.to/30Gkrqg 60ml syringe: amzn.to/2W9iWm5 Neodymium Magnet: amzn.to/2QkFABu (*The most important part is the salinity and temperature. At room temperature and above, it’ll work fine. Higher the temps, the faster they’ll hatch. They’ll continue to hatch upto 48 hours. If it’s winter, try this method: youtu.be/dU5izzyxqeA?t=168 ) (*For salinity, I’m going by the 1 table spoon per liter rule. However, depending on the size of the table spoon, you might want to try 1 table spoon, or 1 1/4 table spoon…and so on. You might want to experiment and see how much salt yields the best result. The brine shrimp will live for 3~4 days max. You can just siphon out only the amount you want during each feeding.)
