    I'm getting some ruby red in march so will prob use a 29 gal and use the holey rock in that being 16 inches long and 9 wide can't put it in a small tank. This sucker is heavy.

    wow, can't wait to see that one all done!
    Yep, the holey rock is HEAVY! you might wanna put a piece of lighting diffuser under it due to it's weight (when you set the tank up that is).

    <--trying to tell my breeding pair of discus how happy they'd be in the 90g compared to the 20g and that they really shouldn't attack the other fish because they're "nice" LoL!
    I figure a long talk first, a nice feeding of their favorite bloodworms, and then later trying them in the 90g...if all else fails I have the 20 to fall back on.

    Fed the corn snake, water changes on 5 tanks, rearranged one of those, moved my breeder rats and mice and did some organizing in the "jungle" room.

    Bleeping at my old man who lost the outtake tube for the xp4 AND was intelligent enough to cut the hoses off the sterilizer/filter so now they are too short to use. Grr!

    looks like planetrena here I come.

    20g is officially spotless and sitting empty in front of me, not sure if I feel like putting water back in it or just leaving it sit "empty" just in case of an emergency.

    Winter Blahs!

    How about a bigger sword? I got a wide leaf one kinda looks like a hosta leaf as far as shape goes.
    Ill snap pics today of what I got going on, tomorrow I need to add a few smaller swords and some purple stem plant and ill let you know what I am not planning on using so you can see if you want em before they go into a misc bucket of rain water.
