Free swimmers in the 2-1/2 gallon.

Well I finally have some free swimmers in a 2-1/2 gallon tank.  Never worked for me before. I don't know why and don't know why these worked.  I didn't see any wigglers when I pulled the slate but figured I would leave the tank and air going just in case. It is in a place where it is hard to see the bottom so I couldn't tell if there were any wigglers in there or not. And all of a sudden they showed up.  Pulled the air and put in a matten filter and fed them BBS.  Not a large spawn but there are about 3 dozen swimming around.  Now I have two jars and a 2-1/2 with free swimmers.

I'm not afraid of work.  I can lay down right next to it and go to sleep.

?Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming ?Wow! What a Ride!? ~ Hunter S. Thompson
