Hello all, as many of you know I've been planning a new 40b planted nano tank for my grandchildren.
So I ordered a stand from the lfs, bought a tank at petco's $ per gallon sale.
Started setting my tank up Saturday and the Fluval 206 I bought in preparation for co2 (it was on sale because it had been opened, told all parts were there) had a seal missing. Went back to the lfs, they were great, and exchanged for a 306. Had to put build off to Sunday so I could mow my yard, work 3rd shift and we have had record rain.
So Sunday morning I start setting up my nano tank, while putting the new filter together my son says Dad your tank has a leak. Low and behold my 75gallon tank (bought used from a guy who bought it used) has a tiny leak Not enough to accumulate, but nonetheless a leak.
So we proceeded to transfer all fish to the 40b and break down the 75 for resealing. This is where having 4 tanks running comes in handy. I seeded my new filter with a large bag of media from my Aquaclear 110. Most of the fish and plants are now in the 40b.
