so i got my mts and java moss and fern today while i was at work, couldnt wait til i could get home and get it planted, and to my surprise my new stuff from bigals came too.
some flourish, NLS growth and community, a replacement part for my python, and my new light bulbs for my fixture, and a couple test kits.
so i decided since i can use my python again why not do a PWC. so i did, did about a 45-55% change. still trying to get a routine done so it doesnt take as long. took like an hour and a half, but that was with planting the fern and tying (sp? wow i really cant remember how to spell that word....need to go to sleep lol) the moss to my pieces of driftwood in my tank.
so as im adding water back to the tank that is no where near the same temp as the water that was in my tank, and stressin out cuz im worried about my only fish and my frog, i added the prime and everything, and let it just sit for a few seconds, with my filter running since i started addin water back in. then i waited a bit for the temp to stabalize and start rising again, and i added the mts and then was going to do some tests, but i got sidetracked like normal. i got sidetracked by seein how the inhabitants would like the NLS growth i got. so i added a pinch.
so im talkin on the phone and i happen to look over and the frog that NEVER comes out since i put it in the tank last week (always hides behind or under driftwood) is swimming like mad around the tank, gettin the NLS, and just exploring. but now my fish is ticked off and wont come out from behind/under a lil driftwood ledge. so idk, just going to leave it alone and hopefully it starts to come back out again.
but after this long and kinda pointless post. a water change and some new food completely changed my frog which i am happy about cuz it was worrying my how it just hid and never ate anything.
