Post up your fish tanks/aquariums!

Yeah, we'll definitely do more when we get back. Thank you so much for the help. I was really weird how it happened though.
Thankfully, we'd just filled our 4 water jugs a few days ago...

Toby looked the worst when we left...the others seemed fine. I just hope they can last until we get out. Class ends at 4:45 and a 30min drive home in traffic

If you guys use Prime I would double dose it even triple dose in this case since you don't know what it is. If you don't use Prime I suggest changing your brand of dechlorinator/water treatment.

Ok thats even better but, you should keep some dechlorinator on hand for emergencies like this.

Good job you two. You guys did all the necessary steps that an experienced fish keeper would do. You should pat each other on the back for a job well done.

I'm too afraid to venture over to marine yet. Too expensive right now also LOL

Yeah it is expensive and the maintenance is pretty intensive but its amazing to watch the tank grow. If you ever decide to make the jump to reef keeping, I'll be glad to help out.

Biohazard is pretty big into his tank...I love to sit and stare at it for endless amounts of time.

Yep For the foreground plants. They tend to require higher light and Co2 but can be done without. The spreading/running of the microsword is slower without.

Gotcha. I think the cichlids will tear it apart though, sadly

You are a correct. You have to stick with Teresa barbs and other community type fish. I just picked up a few new fish last night, I will post pics tonight when I get off. One of them is a monster!
