Thanks Rob! Nice to see you! :P
The growth with the plants and fish are going pretty well now...finally! Im still learning stuff with the plants, and Im getting harder to keep plants, but things are going well now. Only have some BBA for the most part on my AR Reneckii(sp?)
I will be making changes tomorrow during my water change, and hopefully things will really be taking off afterwards. I still owe you a pearling pic! :P I could get some now, but its kinda cheapy, cause the only stuff that really pearls is right next to my diffuser, but hopefully next week things will be different
I like the oceans "tail"! Its nice that for the most part all four of my discus are different, and unique in their own way!
Yes, my UV is second hand, and I plan on replacing the bulb/globe before it ever gets hooked up...if that happens! haha! Thanks for the tip about the hardware store...I may it to my LFS and to a hardware store this weekend, and see what I can do
Thanks again
Eric
