    Lost 8 Rummy Noses :(

    Sorry, forgot to mention: besides using all elements from the cycled 6 gAl (sand, decorations, fake plants) I used 2 filters with bacteria (sponge and HOB style from 6 GAL) ... also added 3rd filter today (HOB w/out bacteria, new) ... so I guess I can say it is cycled, right?
