Moving Day...

... for the fishies!... soon. But where to put them, front room, more space and more light :(, or dining room, more cramped :( or upstairs? I can't decide. The tank will have to sit for a week and then I can bring them up from my Ma's, where they seem to e doing just fine.

Yule Tide Tank

The tank is a clear, the fish they are rested and all the inhabitants dinners are are fully digested. Surely never before seen has a tank been as thoroughly contented.

Ciclid Cycles

The fish are well, even Nancy is still alive, though she doesn't seem to move or eat or... wait... yeah, just checked and she's still alive. Spring is coming and I hope my bio filter heals up in time to deal with the algae growth resulting from all the extra light. I got to learn how to stop killing that thing every time I clean the tank.

Tank of shame..

I think Nancy will have to be removed from the tank permanently, perhaps she will be able to find a new home somewhere as Lucy keeps drinking out of her bowl on the shelf. Ewwww... But she keeps getting bit up and sick in there.

I just cleaned but the water looks even worse than before. I added some algaecide for the first time yesterday too. Hopefully to does it's job without killing all my plants. I post some photos as soon as the water clears up.

PS. The snails have got to go. Nazi culling time I guess.....

Gah!

Yet another Beta missing, so Nancy's back out of the main tank again.

The water seems to be clearing finally. Which is good.

Cichlids

I've repopulated my tank with three playful and inquisitive Electric Yellow Cichlids. They are interesting to watch and, unfortunately, a bit aggressive toward Nancy, my only remaining Beta now that Sid has mysteriously disappeared. :(

Bleh...

Algae, long filamentous algae have infested my tank. Bleh...
