220 build update.

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
DarylMac yes it is a glare from another Tank. I have two 55s in my fish room as well. This Tank houses a ossa knifefish. That wolf in the pic and it's other inhabitants are now in the 220.

Just a short clip of the tank and a couple of it's inhabitants. All is going well so this Saturday makes three weeks for it up and running. Water testing has been good with no ammonia spikes. Been trying to find one or two more large bala's to add but haven't had any luck yet. I did stumble across 5 tiger silver dollars but the 40 dollar a piece price tag kept me from buying them.

I can't remember for sure, are those real or fake plants?

Btw, I bet that sitting there watching the bala sharks is awesome. I was just hoping your video was longer so I could keep watching them. Lol
 
Big water change day today. I can only do about a 40% water change, if I go more I will run out of hot water. I just fill right from the tap.

Not happy at all. Now my Tank has ich, WTF! I saw what I thought were white spots on my balas Sunday so I turned the temp up to 86 and now the silver dollars are peppered with white spots. So I'm just gonna keep the temps at 86 to 88 and let the heat hopefully cure it. This is what I did in my 125 when I had a ich break out and it worked. All the fish in the 220 are still really active and eating really good so hopefully I won't lose any.
 
Sorry to hear about the ich, add a little salt and hopefully it will clear up
