Nice setup! Your Oscars look great....

You should seriously think about getting a python hose or something similar soon for water changes....moving that much water a week with buckets can really mess with your back.... clickhttp://www.petsmart.com/global/product_detail.jsp?PRODUCT%3C%3Eprd_id=845524441776792&FOLDER%3C%3Efolder_id=2534374302030062&ASSORTMENT%3C%3East_id=2534374302023693&bmUID=1187390916404&itemNo=1&Nao=0&In=Fish&N=2030062&Ne=2
