LOL! I am for sure done cycling tanks for a while!

Thank you :) I am super excited!!!

Thanks! I am happy to say it has cycled! I checked the water Saturday and everything was good, added a drop of ammonia to get it to 1 and tested yesterday and tests were 0 ammonia, 0 nitrite, and well nitrate off the charts.added another drop of ammo and tested this morning and everything the...

Thanks guys! The ph has been steady at 7.8, I don't think there is any more room for more media:/ the section for the media is small and it's a big foam block that takes up the whole section,with 2 holes, and in one is the bag of carbon that came with it and the other the ceramic rings it came...

So I am going through another frustrating fish less cycle. I got a fluval spec (5 gallon) the day after thanksgiving, as soon as I got home I opened the box and put the media in my fully cycled 75s filter , then I wrapped my tank and put it under the tree where it belonged until Christmas, so...

I don't know what it is, but I had a few rummy nose tetras that died right after developing red sores out of nowhere:/ have you had any more deaths or found out what it was yet?

I have a Bolivian ram in with my gbr, they get along fine, they are the most peaceful fish in my tank after the panda corys. I cant believe the lady on the phone told you that especially since it says it in their store they are a community fish:/

Just wondering what is a good predictor, I have had mine for about 2 months and she is as happy as can be, she even survived a round of ich, it wasn't on her but she was in the same tank that was treated. I check my tank every morning to make sure she is still swimming about, everything I read...

Oh my gosh :O that is scary! I hope your fish will be ok:/ I never knew that was a possibility, I'm ganna be freaking out my next water change :O

My tests do the same, and I hate yucky water splashing around, what I do is grab a couple paper towels, wrap it around the tube and over the cap and press on the cap while I shake the crap out of it , very Lil if any spills out and if it does it won't fly all over the place because of the paper...

I like it! I love how you did the gravel/sand.

Thanks! I tested this evening and all was still good:) I will continue for the rest of the week ;). They have been munching all day on their buffet, I don't think they will run out anytime soon, but when they do I have algae wafers and will try some veggies too:) if not I am sure I will be here...

Thanks all! I love them, they are so adorable! I hope they all make it. I couldn't believe my eyes either when I turned around and seen she had them all in one bag:/ I just looked at her like wth, and grabbed the bag and walked away. The Lfs I usually go to would have never done that:/ I usually...

A Lil update , so I got the otos :) and I noticed the neons were on sale and I needed to up my school so got 6 of those also, and I got 2 beautiful Dalmatian mollies, well I turned around to look at the plants and next thing I knew she had them bagged, all in one bag, 14 fish:/ Any ways so I...

Thanks for the link! I just got home with them and they are acclimating:) sorry to hear about your sick guy, I hope he pulls through!
