    Nice light. bolt scott.
    You can always bump the temp up slowly by 2 degrees...will induce labor if they are far enough along. (good if they are looking like they aren't doing well)

    Clean out the tank. That means more room for fish (as I assume it's empety) ! :)

    Do a lot of plants (auto filter problem solved) or you can get a sponge filter and airpump cheap.

    But then you'll need the air pump. Though some fish enjoy it and play with it :)

    Airpumps aren't expensive (under $10 new at Wal-mart, and cheaper yet online at places such as ebay and aquabid)

    As far as brick and mortar stores go (I'd suggest Petsmart/Petco..somewhere along those lines). I've never seen a sponge filter in Wal-mart (at least not in my area).

    I think every store that sells fish should have it, At least that's how it is down here.
    Not here, Wal-mart does carry fish..but does not (at least in my area) carry sponge filters.

    I had a hard time finding my sponge filter. Only one store up north even sold them, and they only had 2.
