Oh my ... So this whole thing started with one oscar. I can't even believe it. It started out with oh we won't need a bigger tank for a while. Then we got that tank and started cycling it. Then I wanted another one. Then I wanted more fish. Then I wanted more tanks. Sigh. So now I have ... count em ... 6 tanks. I have 2 ten gallons, a 25, a 60, a 75, and a 125. The 75 and 125 are not cycled, and I haven't filled them up yet. The 75 has some water in it, but it will be gradual. Oh, and a 2 gallon snail tank is being used right now too, for the puffers.
Anyway, I got some oto's for the diatoms that were in the 60, but I did a massive water change when I moved it to the other side of the room (95%) and alas the oscars are now in there with both small plecos and everything is good. No pics of those as they are tiny, but I got 4 and for now they are in the 10 gal with the angels and the JD's (all babies).
I also got 4 juli cory cats

And some ghost shrimp. . . funny thing about these is that I was going to breed em for the puffers/oscars and alas I have magically without even thinking about it ended up with 3 males and 3 females. I know this because I have 3 that look like this ...

And the others are slimmer. Hard to get a pic because the camera can't seem to see them
The puffers are doing okay. I haven't seen them eat, but I did get snails like I mentioned. I got a few pest snails and 2 big mystery snails (1 black 1 yellow) for breeding purposes for the puffers. Hopefully they multiply quick. I put in a small snail and it was doing fine for a while but now I can't find it so either it is hiding or it got eaten. I put in some freeze dried brine shrimp too, and I don't know if they even touched it. I can't tell. Poor little guys.
And then here is my new aquarium room (3 big tanks and 1 small that will eventually be moved probably)...

Anyway, hope you enjoyed
