    Today, I finally received my rena xp3 for the 125, now the magnum 250 will be moved to the 55 gallon. I also went to petsmart to get some tubing and found a gorgeous red peacock male that I had to purchase.

    I finally got my endler tank set up - a home just for girls and fry, no boys, to try to curb the population explosion in the big tank. So of course the girls rewarded me with a new batch of fry in the new tank 2 days later :D

    Looks like I'll be sharing fish in a couple weeks!

    I changed water in my tanks, went to the flemarket to buy some bambo and of course they didnt have any. does that surprise anyone? oh and i have had the worse day ever in my whole life i think. and no that has nothing to do with me starting to get a cold either.

    O no, what happened leslie? I hope all is well.

    On a lighter note Im picking up a new 90 gallon tank and stand to replace the 55 in my fish house. I am going to move my green terrors into the 90 eventually and get some festae for my 125 gallon tank. Also going into the 90 gallon will be a flowerhorn, a peacock eel, and a gold nugget pleco, into the 40 gallon is going a knight goby.

    Rearranged my 125 to create a natural feel. Using only driftwood, river rocks, and giant fake bamboo plants. The middle of the tank is pretty much empty for the time being as I am waiting for a quote on a center piece. I have one of the tiny clay pots left in there for my eel. Once I get a large piece of driftwood for the center I am going to try and reintroduce the severum back into the tank.

    Well, Friday was more of my geeky day re-arranging my plants and rocks.

    Today could be worse though... the kids are sleeping, the wife at work and I have chair in front of my tank watching my fish!

    I am bringing this thread back to life [dancing]

    My nerdy fish plans for the day are to go to Pony Pastures (if you're from VA you know what that is) and looking for driftwood and rocks for any future tanks I will be setting up.

    And tomorrow..... water changes day :(


    It's 81 degrees out, my apartment windows are up and I hear seagulls out side... I wish I lived at the beach :(

    Re: What are You Doing That is Tank Related Today?

    I spent a good 2 hours pruning swords... trying to get the leaves off of all the plants that have too much beard algae on them.... changed 40% of my water.... cleaned out my Magnum 350.... added new peat moss to the Magnum.... wiped my glass off to remove the algae spots.... split my cabomba... vacuumed the sand to remove dead plant debris.... took out my Java Moss (it died due to lack of light I think... I dont really care though)... got the duckweed out of my filter intakes..... and I think that is about it with my 125..... still have 2 more tanks to go.... I dont know if I am in the mood now to hit them?
