Title: Good morn'n, y'all
Post by: Mugwump on May 05, 2013, 06:11:21 AM
Doing some water changes today, and moving some angels around. We need to trim those sword runners back, and plant the new ones from them...there's so many that it's blocking the light.. ;D
Weather's looking to cooperate, so might fire up the 'barby'....??...putz, putz, and more putz.. ;D

I will be getting the cannister filters for the newly set up 75 running today. The tank was planted and filled yesterday.  Will pull all the cannister media that was temporarily stored in media bags with the fish from the leaky 90 and put it back in the filters.

The part of this project that I dread will be trying to catch the White Cloud minnows that will be first to go into the new tank later today.  On second thought....the tank will house six angels, six diamond tetras, seven minnows and about eight cories. What would be the best ones to move first? 

One thing I know for sure....the minnows will be happy to be back amongst the plants. One is missing its tail!   :o

Pauline - the one without a tail should be the easiest to catch!   ;)

rewired some lights, did laundry, planted a bunch of baby Amazon swords, and mostly took it easy.  Nice day.

I snipped and planted 7 and got 3 lights working before I ran out of the fine gravel I like to plant in.  I need more pots, too.  I'll just have to stick them in plastic food containers.  Whatever will I do with all these babies my Amazon Swords have presented me with?  What a fun problem to have!
