What to do...

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
hmmm, what am I looking for on Craigslist?

I went and to my surprise they were having a great sale...a bunch of their larger items were like 50% off so I got a new 150gph bio-wheel filter for the tank...I am thinking about running both of them...would that be over kill?

I also got some elodea (sp?) just to fill space until they get a shipment that has Java Moss in it...

and I got 6 fruit tetras and 6 zebra danios...I'll go back and get 6 more of each when I go to get the Java moss in a couple days...

oh, thats what you all were talking about....nah' I can't...I'm "supposed" to be getting rid of this one as it is.
I'm a senior in high school so I'll be moving off to college in about 7-8 months so my mom keeps hinting that I should start thinning it out and get rid of it as they don't want to take care of it while I'm gone...which I don't blame them for.

I know what you mean, but I think they are starting to like the 75. Where are you going next year?
 
everything is pointing towards ACU (abilene christian university) in Texas...

so here I am...1:40 in the morning still working on this dumb thing...after digging in I decided that it would be best to start over with the tank so I gutted it out and sucked out all of the water (well I left about 1/2 a gallon to help keep some of the established algae) then I filled it back up...added some chlorine remover and got both filters running...so for now I'll run both of them.
Next I got the two power heads going and hooked my bubbler up to the one in the back.
Now I'm waiting for my heater to acclimate before I plug it in (broke one years ago because I didn't wait...lol) but the water is still pretty dirty...but I think with both filters going and with some time it'll settle down...
Now I'm going to wait for it to heat up a bit and add my fish (poor little guys...still waiting to go in from this afternoon) then I'll drop the plants in and call it a night!

I'll get some pics up tomorrow just for kicks...I know some tetras and danios are far from "Monster" but oh well...ya'll are helpful. ;)
