Not in a great spot. My material needs are met, so don't worry about that. Just want to break out of the cycle I'm in of "oh hey, you have only a few hundred from this paycheck before you're negative again."

If we can get enough interest to start a c/aquariums, I swear I will be the number one power poster on this site.
I've found a few things that really help with keeping your neo colony going: lots of java moss, diffused lighting and a decent calcium source. Aquarium Coop sells these calcium blocks called "Wonder Shells" that seem consistently trigger spawning behaviors in all of my inverts.
Edit: Holy shit I'm reading this thread and nevermind on c/aquariums.
Do a regular "aquariums" thread to start out with
I would 100% be down with that. I think it's pretty easy to get a new community to be made, there just has to be people willing to be mods beforehand.
Good to know, thanks! I'll have to spend some time and see if I can't get them going better. About a third of the tank is a big patch of rotala that gives them a lot of space to hide that's out of direct light, but I've had bad luck with moss growing string algae that I can't get rid of without removing the moss. Probably also to do with the water changes lol. I hadn't heard about the calcium thing though, I'll definitely try that when I can!
