Well, I got a scape that I actually like now. The tank is still foggy, but you can kind of see it. Not perfect yet, but it will do.
I didn't have a heater in the tank last night (I had it in with the QT because that's where the fish were) and we had record colds for March in Florida. It got down to 30, so now the tank water is freezing. I am assuming that I won't have I recycle, because the rock is all established, right?
Hoping to pick up a new sand bed tomorrow! My lights are scheduled to arrive around 1:00pm. By then I hope to have the tank ready, and hopefully the live stock back in.
Today's been the most productive day since the mess. Thanks everyone for helping me there with your motivation! Your advice is always great!
Bad part is, my baby cousin is staying with us all week because the parents need to rest with the new child, and we are the closest to them. Hopefully my room won't turn into a beach again!
Now that I'm basically clear of stock, except one odd man out clown, I'm gonna change the tank to a NO CLOWN ZONE. I have enough clowns already. Gonna hope that some helfrichi Firefish go on sale soon. Can't afford to drop $100 on a fish!
Also highly considering a Tankas Pygmy Wrasse, and a hi-fin red banded goby.
My current blue dot will be staying in the 10g FOWLR, and the odd man out clown, being the only fish in the other 10 or being returned
.
Wow that was a long write up. Oh, almost forgot! Starting to save for my future 40b-55g upgrade in the summer! Really excited for that!
