Im putting around 6 of them in there with a little Balloon molly! So cute!

LOL ikr, they're so cute and chubby! I love balloon mollies!!

 

[Jason7894561230]

But the bad news is that they are like $6 hmm im guess ill be saving!

 

[oscarbreeder]

I really like the black sand. Tank looks great!

 

[Jason7894561230]

Thanks Oscarbreeder!

 

[SnailySophi]

Yeah, they're SO CUTE, but kinda expensive for you, I guess. My lfs has them for $4.50, though. Want me to buy them for you, ship em over? Lol. I kid, I kid.

Here in the UK they 5 for 6 pounds much cheaper.

 

[Jason7894561230]

Wow that is cheaper FF!

Alright so i am going to hopefully get the water tested today, i put some food in there and then took it out hopefully to get the cycle going. I was thinking this one isnt going to take as long as te other ones because my plants, heater and driftwood all had good stuff on it so fingers crossed

Hey, haven't checked this thread in quite some time but decided to click the email today. Looks good with the black sand.

GOOD LUCK! My fingers crossed, too!

 

[Fastfossil]

Here too. Fingers and toes

YUP! My toes, too! hmm... And I'll braid my hair uh - i'll count that as a cross and tie a rubber band (?). just thinking.

you could always pull some media from your other tank and use it to help the cycle along or float a sponge in the other tank for a few days and then put it in the 10.

 

[SnailySophi]

Yeah, that would be more efficient than crossing fingers, toes, hair, rubber bands.

 

[mandy2936]

Tanks good i put some food in there for some ammonia hopefully the cycle will start soon!
FastFossil heres a link to a golden pencilfish

Yeah i was thinking of doing that

 

[Jason7894561230]

Cycle is done, and ready to add fish but i am going too first get a test fissh and see how it goes

 

[Ziggy953]

I'm ready for more fish even though I said yesterday that I would not be adding any....I really want an angel...

 

[mandy2936]

Aw that would be really nice in your tank, Ziggy!

 

[Jason7894561230]

An angel would go good in the tank but there is a possibility of a little munching, my seggustion is that you get a little one that cant eat the neons BTW i am getting neons for my tank
