Alright, the black skirts are checking things out!

It's so funny to watch them explore! They start at one point, go a few inches, and dart back. Lol. They do this all the way around the tank!

Nice! No plant pics?

 

[Homedog98]

Here's them checking things out. The plant pics won't load. I'll try again. I'll get more when I add the Molly tomorrow.

 

[Homedog98]

Alright, going out to buy a Molly and 3 more skirts. I'm going to put the betta in the 29 temporarily while the other fish are QT'd... Cause who knows what the petsmart fish are gonna have. I'm buying melafix and primafix too just in case lol. Also hopefully seachem flourish and definitely a new bottle of prime.

Ok, sparky is acclimating

 

[Homedog98]

Sparky is in! And just looked in the tank to figure out there are brown spots on my glass. They wipe off easily... Diatoms?

That is what it sounds like. Comes off in a cloud of dust?

 

[Homedog98]

Alright, sparky immediately went into the cave lol. Then he took a bite of the sand and spit it out... ?

Comes off on my finger.

Alright, my anarchis's growth is starting to grow it's own roots... How should I go about trimming and replanting it?

 

[Homedog98]

Yay! Got the Molly and the black skirts. the Molly looks kind of fat... Prego possibly? I'll post a pic tonight and we'll see. I kinda hope not lol...

 

[Homedog98]

Just assuming the Molly is prego... How should I go about covering the intake with tights?
