Hello Dorothee,
Well, today I’m actually happy that I don’t yet have any fish, because I caught a dragonfly nymph in one of my aquaria! I’m always obsessively careful to examine new plants and wash them and isolate them several days before adding them to an aquarium. I will now be extra vigilant at watching my tanks for the following days, because if one hatched out, there may be more! :angry: I just received some new plants today, including Ceratopteris thalictroides, and they have been examined, washed and are now in an isolation tank.
I have read other posts about “deissneri” so I know what you mean. I will call Armin Schaefer this evening and ask what he has in stock. He should be able to help me. If not, I will call Utaka, a specialist aquarium shop in the Netherlands, to see if he can obtain them via Ruinemans or his own importer (thank you for the suggestion). I am planning a trip to Utaka next week to pick up some Boraras Brittae and Sundadanio as my first tank inhabitants (providing I don’t have an infestation of dragonfly larvae and get my water pH right.) My osmosis set arrived today!
It is very difficult for me to travel anywhere, so that is an obstacle to my picking up fish. But next week, I plan a little outing! :cheer: Monday will be too hot! But then it is supposed to cool off again.
Cheers,
Jonette
