Some people has dyed during the MItmachtag friday afternoon last week. Although it was giving a lot of color then, it has been light-blue since then. PH is around 10.5, temperature 21.5. The condition does not seem so bad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As it is not coming back to deeper blue, we decided to feed the vat. It did not eat since it came back from winter sleep. maybe it is hungry?! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Many recipes says give wheat bran, but since I did not have wheat bran at home, and at the moment we have a water problem (tab is broken) at the garden, I cocked waizenkaime (wheat germ) 40g with ~40-60ml water at home and brought it. After mixing, I added them in small chunks and let it sink in the vat water. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Maybe it was a bad idea to use weizenkeime? (I have used it before though) or maybe it was cooked too dense (need more water\/ashwater)? It made strange brown bubbles, and also it did not smell very well. I expected this effect because my vat at home which I fed the same thing also had this problem.. I mixed it well, checked PH and added a bit (2spoons, ~10g) of calk and mixed it well. Hopefully this improves the vat condition. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
