My aquascape for the shell dwellers totally failed because a) they excavated the entire landscape and b) the African cichlid salt killed all the plants. I want to try again… but this time with brackish water!
P.S. Thank you to Zenzo at @TazawaTanks for the advice on how to start a brackish tank and footage of the figure 8 puffer and Indian dwarf mudskippers at the end! Definitely check out his channel for great info about these species.
