so we finally got our hex set up. PFS substrate, fake plants. We are planning on floating some water sprite or other floating plant at the top, since the plants only reach about half way up. We also need to add a cave or hiding spot of some sort as we plan on having a group of panda cories. We also may have an angelfish, and a school of black phantom tetras (thanks for all the stocking suggestions in my other thread).
We added ammonia yesterday, along with some filter floss out of the filter on our 20gal. Today ammonia is still at 4ppm and nitrites are about .75 ppm looks like this cycle will be done in no time. We plan on adding a second Tetra 30 filter, and we also need to pick up a thermometer. Lots of work still, hopefully we get it the way we want it before the cycle is up!
