what are you doing today that is tank related?

If the algae doesn't come off the plants and their plastic they sell a plastic plant cleaner just so ya know (can't remember the exact name but I know I picked up a bottle at Petsmart before).

Just mustered up enough energy to do partials on the 20L and the 10g, clean off the algae on the heaters in those tanks using a toothbrush, and even rinse the prefilters/sponge filters in those tanks too.

 

They're real plants but I've had this type of algae on the plants before and generally it comes off pretty easily.

 

I set up my 83 gallon last week, forgot to mention that And yesterday I cleaned our Horus' tank, incredibly messy since I hadn't been home for a while and my sis refused to follow my feeding directions and had him overfed :C

 

water changes and filter maintenance. last night we did a really good cleanning in the 55g and rearanged the decor and put 3 of the larger fry in. so far they've adapted very well.

 

PWC's on fry tanks!

 

nothing, the hubby took over today's feeding (happy b-day to me..I get a day off and am happy as can be)!

 

Congrats!

 

My 30g tank had a leak , I have fixed it during the weekend left it filled with water to check again.
So today I'll be adding soil in it, if its still leaking I'll have to fix again

 

gonna try and set up a 40B for the turtle so I can start making a stand for the other 4 tanks.

 

Moved my fish tanks over today. Man was that a lot more work then I thought. My Swordtail finally dropped her fry last night and of course I had to spend an extra hour catching them all. What a pain in the butt. I managed to get most of them, if not all. I'm not sure how they'll do in the new water though. I noticed a few swimming around and they seemed okay but now I can't see them. They do have a lot of places they could be hiding though so hopefully at least a few will make it out of this batch.

 

Absolutely NOTHING, less ordering filter media.

 

partial on the 90g, siphoning REALLY well....and tomorrow or possibly late tonight will be filter cleaning!

 

water changes and filter maintenance.

 

5 PWC's. Its gonna be a wet day.

 

Feeding all the fry in the 10g (several times) Lol!
and of course the 20L and the 90g

 

Had to run to PetSmart to get a bag of Floura Max for the 30 Long. The 3 bags of Eco Complete that were in the 20 didn't provide enough coverage.

 

Bought 50 new fish at PetSmart. Labor Day weekend $1 tetra sale.
got 10 of each for the 210
rasbora het.
zebra danio
von rio's
bloodfins
neons

 

I really like the rasbora het. and the orange von rios (really nice in a large school)!
I find neons last longer than the cardinals for some odd reason too!
Watch with the zebras and bloodfins if your putting them with the discus though (they discus might hide with them).

--------------
Feeding, Feeding, and Feeding the 10g LoL!

 

zebras are new, the bloodfins do fine infact they are the main schoolers in the tank, always out, the discus rarely hide as i have some of that l indica for a massive canopy. the von rios and hets are friggin awesome in this tank, they needed the big swimming space.

they even move out of the way of the discus especially at feeding time.

 

agreed, wish I woulda got more of the hets and von rios when I initially bought some.
Now I simply don't wanna add anything because I know I'ma have to divide off a section of it for all these discus fry.

netted the excess food from the bottom of the 20L and the 10g, rinsed the prefilter off from the 10g-added prime and topped it off.
