What Did You do With Your Tank Today?

[Autumnsky]

Last day of this treatment. Will do pwc on Monday morning. Then I will see if it helped or not.

Sunday will do a little checking about how different meds affect the inverts and bb.

Hoping to sell some tables I don't need tomorrow for half the money I will need for the new 12G Edge tank!!!??? Hope!

Had to spend the other half I had on meds and supplies. Trying to make the hobby not cost extra money, lol...

How's that working for ya? you might say....., not very well!!! I am always needing something extra!

Beautiful tank fresh2o. Whats that super green plant in the front?

Thanks! The plant in front is dwarf sag. Got it in January, 80-90% of it melted in the first week, saw minimal growth the first 3 months under dual T5 NO. Switched to a Finnex FugeRay and there was a big change in growth. Added DIY CO2 and it exploded with large bright green leaves and lots of runners.

Did you order online or from a lfs

Online from AquariumPlants.com. They have some nice root tabs (total, iron, or phosphate) at 75 for $10.

50% water change in all my smaller tanks, and finally added my Betta Sorority to my community tank.

Made a big decision - I think my new hex tank will be a reef instead of freshwater! Now to puck it up, piece equipment together and start my cycle!

Can't those tables be used as stands? This hobby can get pricy I know.

My tank stared leaking at 1am, so this moring I moved everything except substrate into a tub, scooped out substrate and cut off the sealing. Turns out the old owner tried to reseal it, but didn't clamp the sides so the base separated away from the main tank, and it turns out I'm better at aqua scapeing buckets better the tank, go figure. _-..-_

Sorry to hear this. How many gallons was the tank and how many gallons was on the floor?

I'm thankful it was a slow leak and only leaked about 3 gallons in a bucket that I had placed under the main leak. It was a 45 corner tank and I am never catching khuil loaches again ,little acrobats

Added 6 RCS to the shrimp tank. In the planted tank, got to try out the new aquatic plant scissors tonight and cut down the Bacopa caroliniana to a reasonable height. The previous cuts are now producing two sprouts per stem...hope it continues moving forward.

Wow, beautiful.

I have Bacopa australis that needs constant trimming and grows two for one. I sometimes think a better name for bacopa species would be the hydra plant, lol.

Oh that's not too bad. And kuhliis are soo much fun to catch...NOT, I have 7-8 in my tank and they aren't coming out till they kick the bucket.

Yea, I was lucky. Catching khulis should be an Olympic sport. I upgraded my tank a few times and I swear they learned from that
