Hardly made a dent

I took 40 fish to the LFS this morning and I can hardly tell the difference.  I'm still overstocked.  Later today after the carpenter visits I'll take a whole mess of dots and guppies to the shop.  I need to do some serious culling as well.  I need to make room for 4 more big Discus!
Always move forward. Never look back.

I am satisfied.  I worked all day take fish here, take fish there, move fish, 60% WC on all tanks (yes I used all my water).  I feel like Barb and Jon.  Constant must do things  for weeks have me whupped.  I have a tank for the new Discus after they're QT period.  They'll go in a 120 with 12 other Discus.  I actually have an empty 29!  Imagine that.  I still have must do's next week as well as work.  Charlotte will have to suck it up and wait until I find time to do a job just for the joy of it.

I didn't do a good job of making room. Moved my Plat pair into a 55 with 4 Blue Marbles and they proceeded to beat the pulp out of one of them.

I had to move him/her into a 20H tank that I had taken my Koi pair out of in order to put some juvie snots in. Now he is swimming all alone with a bunch of snots in the 20H. huh  >:(

Yes that's what I thought. With those flowing fins he didn't stand a chance against that Plat. lol
