Yah if you put in time into your fish tank it'll end up really nice. I just don't recommend alot of catfish. Expesaly redtails!!!

Relentless said:I never said not to do water changes when the toxins are high. My tank is perfectly healthy I never had a fish die on me because of the water conditions. Also do you believe every thing you find. I been dealing with fish my whole life so I know what im talking about get your facts right.

The drama here is not worth addressing. You may quickly find that behavior like that is not tolerated on AA (nor should it be).
And PAX, you've got a good game plan and seem dedicated to keeping your fish healthy. Just get the toxins down ASAP, keep up the testing, continue with the water changes, simply match the temperature the best you can from the tap to your tank...and all will be well.
Make sure you keep us updated on your progress
