I was just wondering something. I’ve read in many articles, that the nitrifying bacteria won’t survive acid waters. So if I want to replicate this particular biotope, how would it be possible without affecting the nitrifying bacteria in the filter? Would the bacteria in the filter survive a ph of 3 or 4? Also, the water in these biotopes are very calm with very low movement. In the aquarium world how can we achieve a healthy ecosystem without strong movement of water?? In order to keep a healthy tank I believe one of the most important aspects is to keep moving the water. Many unhealthy tanks can produce cyanobacteria precisely because the lack of water movement, so can we possible archive good results with slow water movements? Thank you for any possible reply!Rizky Muhammad Ihsan says:

Great write up I have been trying to find some Taeniamia zosterophora and this is the only information I could find on them. Have you ever seen them available or know what the going price for them would be? Thanks again.Jo says:
It always made me sad to see people equate a betta's happiness with bubble nests! They really do not mean a fish is happy. They are purely a sign of sexual maturity and a readiness to breed!Matt Pedersen says:
Allie, I think it would work the same; it's the acidity of the vinegar dissolving the bristles, so the type of vinegar likely wouldn't matter.Simon says:
