This is my first aquarium and I am looking for some advice regarding It. It contains Corydoras Venezuelans, Nerite snails, and cherry neocordina shrimp. It also contains Amazon Sword, Anubias, and Java moss. The Java ferns I wedged into the driftwood all rotted and died. The Java moss is growing rapidly, as is the Amazon Sword. The population of shrimp has also exploded. I am looking for advice on how to make my Corydoras grow quicker. When i first got them I was over feeding them, but now I am worried they are not getting enough food. How much should I be feeding each one. I use tropical pellets (pictured) which they always devour very quickly. I am also seeking advice on how to improve the general aesthetics of my tank.
Thank You!🙏

Caught this in a small pond in central VA. I have never caught a sunfish that looks quite like this one and was wondering what species it was. The lighting in the photo was kind of bad, but the blue scales were extremely iridescent and almost had a purple glow.

Recently picked this coin up at local coin shop. They had it in a bargain bin for 2$ and when I asked them about it they said it was probably some type of low value commemorative coin. I tried looking it and it seems to be some type of coin that was made for the first 707 flight across America. I tried to find it on Numista but was unable to find it.
