50% of the year in Ypsilanti for the school, 50% in Bay City over here.

Interested in some Dwarf sag and bacopa, also if you have any moss available I'd be interested as well.

Boyfriend and I broke up the other day, updates will be put on hold until things are a bit more stable in the moving process.

Thanks for all the advice guys! I feel much better about leaving my tank for a week than I did before!

Thankfully he and I live together, so it makes things a bit easier. I think I may give him just a daily schedule for feedings, dosing ferts, etc. And I will definitely be showing him how much to feed. He already knows the "Girlfriend's Dread Look of Warning" so it should be easy lol. I'm about...

So far, the green cories are far more active and entertaining than the pandas were. I'd even say rambunctious. Did a partial water change today, and about to get cracking on writing a care sheet for my boyfriend to follow when I'm on vacation at the end of the month. I will be gone for about a...

Thanks guys! I'm excited to see how it all looks once Fresh's plant package arrives and I get it all planted. I predict it will be delivered either tomorrow or Saturday, it's almost here based on the tracking number.

I would do another one immediately. 50% at least. Keep testing and get it down to a manageable level of nitrates, 10-20 ppm.

Woke up this morning to brown algae/diatoms and it's driving me crazy. Ugh. Did a PWC today and wiped off the front pane of the tank, didn't have enough time to do the back and sides. May do some more work on the tank after work tomorrow. In positive news, awaiting the arrival of a plant...
