Well I just tested the nitrate level again, I think it is about 40ppm now. A little update on the ich problem. The tank has been running at 87F for about 3 days now. Have not seen any more ich pop up. So I think it is working! 
Yeah I did a major cleaning of the tank saturday night. Pulled out all the plants, in sections. and cleaned off all the alge on them. I got platic plants by the way. I do want to try live plants, I did have a couple of live plants when I first started my tank. But they just died on me, and it was big mess. Then I did my research on the net. And learned all the stuff that I need to do. So I am probably going to temp it again one of these days. But anyway, you wont belive on how much brighter the tank looks, with all of the alge off the plants.
Yeah also on that last danio. well the blank fin sharks, beat me the punch. I came home and I was going to pull him out of the tank. Went looking for for him and he was gone. That was about two days ago. That is ok, cause I am sure that all of them where starting to get a little crowned with all of them in there.
