    did a major pruning, a bit of a rearranging (90g) & clean the filters and did partials.

    did partials on the 20L, pulled the carbon, cleaned the sponge filters & prefilters & added methy. blue for the eggs.

    brought in some plants growing in a 40 gal tub outside and put them in the 20 and 10 gal. Have tons of plants out there growing in it. Mostly Java fern and floating plants.

    Lots to do today. I have to clean out the canister filter because I can't remember the last time I cleaned it. Clean the filter on the 10 gallon and do water changes on both tanks.

    Dawn you need a few more tanks for them fish, they seem to be quite prolific in their spawning.

    35% pwc on the 210, filter rinse, sump clean out, feed.

    Yea, I'm telling ya I think our waters viagra laced.
    And when I talked to the 2 local fish stores they claim they don't breed/re-spawn that quickly...but I can prove they do with mine (photos).

    Feeding and watching them care for the eggs...the males taking a more active role with this batch oddly enough.

    Water changes after lunch. Since removing the L. Repens that was so overgrown the Wisteria has just taken off and almost completely filled my tank. Good fry cover though for when ever this stubborn female Swordtail decides to drop some fry.

    Moving a couple of tanks and setting up 3 more. Who ever said that MTS was an obsession is right on the money.
