Got a pair of nice pictures of Atlas (min-min was hiding shes a but more shy).
Bit of an update on Atlas and Min-min and the 55 gallon in general. both Atlas (mostly Atlas) and Min have gotten more size to them. Attached are pictures of Atlas.
also managed to snag a Sunsun canister rated for 200 gallons for about 70$ on amazon, might be a bit overkill but I’m loving the results compared to 2 HoB filters, now i have the double biowheel penguin (i forget which model, it takes C cartridges) and the sun sun going with a spare filter sponge on the canister’s outflow to slow the current a little. So ine water change and instillation of the cannister filter later. Min is shy so i gotta wait till around night for her to pop out. Managed to get one of her peaking out. Crazy they are maybe 8 months tops and Atlas is this size. 
Shes up at the top peaking from behind the HoB intake.

Update on the 55g:Atlas is huge, Min is smaller but still good size. 
Little bit messy after both cleaning/maintenance and feeding. Atlas tends to hoard all the food on the bottom
full tank shot as well, did a minor rescape/massive plant prune/matinence after a bout of black algae.

Managed to get a few updated shots of Atlas (min is even more shy then he is, he even feels anything like one of the dogs walking by he “hides” not well mind you due to his size but yeah) photo spam heavy.
Big snowstorm starting to hit so checking all the Tanks and found Atlas and Min having private time in the tube, checked a bit longer and Atlas is now sitting on what looks to be a Tablespoon sized lump of eggs, Min is doing well and both offered a algae wafer from Ken before bed, Atlas is just kinda hanging out at the entrance sitting on his wafer blocking the cave and Min is under her moss ball/java moss combo maze. Will grab photos in the morning if i can in the meantime some shots of Min i snagged before they did cave time.
she clambers up on that plant to get a quick view then back down into the maze if she sees me or the dogs.
