    Plants arrived! Added to tank =3
    Endlers are madly picking at them, guppies seem to have no interest, and the Tiger Endlers(hybrids) are only mildly interested. LOL! So attacking new plants is the difference in the species!

    Agonizing about the fact that my babies dug up the anubias and uncovered parts of the air stone only two days after the water change.

    It's not designed for the aquarium trade, but it's industrial strength and fit's 2 75g's on top of each other. I use one on my 125's too :D

    20% PWC on the 210, removed all discus and angels from the tank, going to do a few GH/KH tests to get a base reading for the acid/alkalinity buffers. Rescaped the 210.

    Possibly going to tinker with the 52g today also once the storms pass.

    10 gallon is finally cycled, thank God. I was tired of it being cloudy and doing so many partials to keep the ammonia levels down. Going to do a 20% water change on it today and add some Stability on the sponge filter. Will post an updated picture of the tank later today.

    Dosed Excel in the 20. No new fry yet for the past few days unfortunately. L. Repens seems to have deepened their red color since the light change and the Crypt has taken on a pinkish color.

    Put a simple white background on the 10 gallon. I was tired of being able to see the wall though the tank. LoL Lowered the tank temp from 87 to 78 now that the fish have been in there about a week.

    Add a couple more fan to the outside fish houses.
    I'm really having a hard time keeping the temps down for the passed couple of weeks.

    Moved my 4 cory cats down to the 10 gallon. With feeding crushed food to the Endler's I don't think they were getting enough. Endler's are little pigs !
