23rd Month – (Cucumber Feeding Frenzy) NO filter, NO CO2, NO Ferts 5 Gallon Nano Tank

This is 23rd month update. Loomster is a sparkling gourami. Loomster became very shy this month. I’m not sure why. He did eat the water fleas, but it took him a whole day. He would hunt them here and there and as soon as I got close to the tank, he would dart back into the bushes. The cucumber was boiled for around 10 minutes until it was very soft. The reason is to make it very soft so that the shrimp can eat it easily.

I seem to have misspelled Groundhog day. :)
