a wine glass tank interesting , I thought you said you didn't have anymore room . would love to see the wine glass heck could always make a super size Pina Colada ,
been looking at a few pumps to drain tank and also refill since I"m no longer allowed to pick up heavy things . bad enough I'm doing things dr told me to stop .
Pumps sound perfect. I bought a smallish/medium one and haven't got to setting it up for the water change process.

Okay, the wine glass is up and running and for the moment has 5 Sundadanio Axelrodii Neon Blue "Rasbora" There used to be more of them but after cleaning their tank out today that is what is left.
And I put the Betta in there for now. He might be able to move back to the Spec V.
The wine glass tank pushed me over the 5 tanks thing I am working towards.
I could claim 5 if I just say it is the Betta tank. (which we all know if you just have 1 Betta, doesn't count as a tank.)
Intended to put the Carbon Rili into the wine glass, but I don't think I could find them in there if I tried. Lost 3 of them thought the 4th was a goner but it was still alive this evening when I put them into the small 1G planted vase, heated and with an air bubbler. And a light.
I have an associate from CAS who has really nice blood red Cherry Shrimp, was wanting Bloody Mary but don't need any of them, lol. Will file that away in the back of my brain for now.
Cleaned out the Spec V all the way to the sand - rinse out with treated water though.
Put the Preggo Endler girls in there. Likely will be shutting it down soon. Want to get this batch of babies and raise them up to some size to populate the top of the 72G.
Males are stunning - females are mean to each other in the 5G, aggressive! Doubt there will be an issue in the 72G with so much room.
<<<<<<<<>>>>>>>>
Added a whole bunch of plants into the 46G almost all from the Spec V which was so thick the filter wasn't working well reason I wanted to rinse out the sand. There were also 2 pitchers behind the Spec V hiding
with the last of the plants that had been in the summer plant tub.
Both empty now!!! yay!
Cleaned off the plant jar table and redid most of the containers to some degree. It is now neater and was trying to end up with a vase of Subwassertang, one of moss and one of Riccia but with the new Dwarf Crays and shrimp that will need to wait.
Used one jar of Dwarf hairgrass to plant a pocket in the Wine glass.
Still have a couple jars to make into plant containers LATER.
72G Added the Green Neons into the big group. They blended in quickly.
Yesterday saw one of the Bamboo shrimp sitting next to a dead one. But it turned out to be the fresh molt, not a dead one!!! whew - that was so scary for a minute or two!!!
46G Angels are still fighting. I can not still quite tell who is the odd one/not part of the pair, if there is a pair, it seems to change. One Lighter orange Koi Angel picks on both the other 2, and one keeps out if it for the most part Big Silver and the other Red orange Koi periodically picks on the other. The two Koi Angels shudder and do a stand off, posturing at each other, like they are about to rumble -frequently.
Serpae just steer clear and seem good in there. Might try to get 3 more females, I think I have 3 males and 2 females. And I really didn't even want any Serpae Tetras. They are pretty but can be nippy.
Getting some of the mess part in the living room put away little by little.
Need to run to the Boulder lfs and see if they have about 6 more Sundadanio and any nano fish deals. They do not usually have good prices, just a good selection.
Been working in tank land for 12 hours. Tired! Will load pics in a minute, just a few too tired.
