what are you doing today that is tank related?

Just did a 50% water change on the 20 and a very small one on the 10.

 

Reading up on plants and what not. About to head to work sadly, but I'll be dreaming of my tank the entire time I'm gone =D
Started a new, smaller culture of micro worms this morning.

 

fed the "gang" over and over and over...man can the discus EAT!
scraped the back wall of the 90g for algae (yes, I have plecos that prolly would eat it and sae's...but I don't like the look of it) haha! and then what would I do with the algae wafers??!?!?

 

Ended up doing a water change on the tank today then dosed with Excel, Stability (just because I have some left), and a little bit of Melafix.

 

did water changes and filter maint.

 

Taking most of the water out of the 20 gallon then refilling it. I'm at my wits end with the cloudiness. Next step is going to be a complete breakdown to soak the driftwood in boiling hot water and rinsing the substrate completely which I think is the main problem.

 

Check the thread I made in the planted forum.

 

check the 90g signature link (organized the inhabitants into keep and rehome)

 

Tank breakdown begins !

 

That was delayed maybe 2 weeks. the 210 is behind schedule and im getting pissed, got enough plants for a 300g in a 52g tank. my fish are looking at me like I think they are monkeys or something.

going to cut the leveler blocks in a few then start rinsing the substrate. no one makes a collander with tiny holes yet in 20" diameter range.

 

bought Krylon Watermelon, Ballet Slipper, and Rustoleum one that looks identical to the krylon Make It Stone!
Plan on spraying them on index cards to figure out which to use.

 

Yay, I'm done with my tank breakdown and redo. I think it looks amazing now ! Hopefully that cloudy water issue won't come back. The substrate was pretty dirty when I took it outside and rinsed it off; lots of dead roots and stuff. I will post pictures soon.

 

looking forward to seeing the picts!
Glad it's looking better (fingers crossed it stays clear for ya)

 

Everyones so busy on thier tanks. I just have to add water to a 10 gal planted tank with shrimp and snails. (no top on it and in a window so evaporation is emense) plants love that tank. Seen the pics Anothony tank looks good but needs height IMO.

 

Getting ready to start my 50% water change on both tanks.

 

Moved the turtle to her new enclosure and feed the boa.

 

The 55 gal planted need prunining today at some point.

 

I've gotta add water to the tanks. Man, i've been neglecting them as of late =(

 

Ended up going to the store and buying a bag of pool filter sand for the 10 gallon tank. Waiting for my fish to arrive.
