Also as a side note, i'm happy to announce that five of the six bulbs have started to root! I checked on them, shined a flashlight at them and only one had fuzzy stuff growing, coincidentally the largest one. I sniffed it and nearly dropped it, it REEKED. I threw it away. The fuzz was minimal, and none of the others are showing any discoloration, they've all begun to sprout tiny little roots.
In order to investigate the bulbs I had to turn them around, so I had to use a butter knife (I've sacrificed this one for stirring the dechlorinator into the fish water, it's never been used for humans.) to muss them around a bit. Both chubs and Jazzy were very curious as to what was invading their homes. Chubs more so, I had to be careful moving it around cause he was so close and watching it, haha.
Jazzy has definitely already become less stressed, I found a decent sized bubble nest when I was looking at the bulbs. It wasn't there yesterday morning when he could see chubs. Now he can't, and I found a nest!
very pleased with that result.
