    And yet another tank... this is my juvenile tank and everyone in here will have a new home once they grow up... so yes I'm aware that the tank size is small if the fish were adults.

    Everyone in here:
    1 Electric Yellow
    1 Red Empress
    1 Brislenose Pleco

    *-----Just Passed -----*
    1 Electric Blue Jack


    Unfortunately I lost my Electric Blue Jack. It's my own fault for thinking that I could add the Africans to his tank... but they seemed to get along just fine for almost a week before he passed... He must have gotten teamed up on over night 'cause he was found to be in trouble in the morning but was just fine the night before. I'm mad at myself for this happening... :(

    How long has that bamboo been in there ? Usually that doesn't last long when it's completely in water.

    agree, I tried it and it turned "mush" like after a few weeks.

    The good thing for these guys now is they have moved on up... They are now living in the 26 and the 26 old tenants have moved to the 50. Those that used to be in the fifty have found a new home.
    10 is now empty and awaiting fry someday...

    just curious, but what kind of filter do you have on there?
    Your water clarity is amazing!

    >I Once ran an emperor 400 on a 10g...talk about clarity..haha!

    thanks, lucky for us all our tanks seem to clear up to this clarity once we get things settled.... nothing special it's a cheap Whisper that came with the tank as a kit when we bought the setup (tank, filter, hood...) We contribute the clarity to the java moss... one LFS told use that it would clear things up and to our surprise it does an awesome job. (at least we think it's java moss, LFS called it mystery moss... not the brightest LFS :roll: )

    Haha, yea...that defin looks like java moss...had some a while back but didn't like the look in my particular setup.

    Mystery moss...that sounds like something my local petco workers would call it. Haha!
