So, how many fish you got now?

Yeah... Someone told me to get three. I would but I don't like them sitting in the cups very long. It's like you buy them and they see a big tank and then they can't go any where. Just seems sort of mean. Plus the girl can give the 5 gallon some ammonia while she is in there, maybe the cycle will start back up

Oh yeah I heard of crypt melt, as long as the roots are nice and healthy they will come back. Especially since I have dirt. I will probably have to go buy some more plants. Only a few pieces of ludwigia are doing okay. Actually the only plant that is Doug super good is my wisteria and my swords, but you can't go wrong with them.

It shouldn't take that long, I will still have a decent size space though. Maybe i will pick up another girl or something. Since I will be rearranging the tank and I have the 5 gallon open and available for the gal to be in there. The sucky thing is there are only a few plants left, well there are still a lot, just not the amount I started with.

I have a really cool idea for a lay out though, can't wait to try it. What other plants should I use? I was thinking of crypt as the Petsmart has one, maybe more. They reproduce like crazy too!

Alright, I dont have a big enough tank is the problem, how would I go about that? Could I just get a tub, like the storage kind or something and some how put the old filter in or on there until I use it to clear the regular tank up?

I am thinking of doing this over Spring break, but I will need to get the gravel. Can it be natural river rock from Home Depot? I know they sell the pebble typerocks that are natural, or they should... If not i will buy aquarium ones from Petco or Petsmart. Gonna be so much work!

Okay great, I maybe only use that media till I get a new filter, I am gonna grt the Tom, to many complaints on how loud the Fluval is.

I am getting sick of my sorority, I am starting to dislike sand in the heavily planted tank. I wanna switch to gravel but I dont know how I would do that, I wanna use the same dirt because it has already gone through the phase where it gets all the tannins out and doesn't have any more of that bacteria.

How should I do it?

;) Thanks Sakura!~ <3

Random question, what other type of fishies flare? Lol come to think of it i have no clue and im getting curious

Key if I take an old carbon bag, it is literally just a bag of carbon, grime my sorority tank and put it in the 5 gallon filter, wouldn't it have some bacteria? So it would jump start it?

I am considering replacing the filter in the 5 gallon as well, though I am not sure whether to get the Fluval mini filter with the spray bar or the Tom mini internal filter.

Yeah, I am shipping someone on here a bunch of floating plants, after that I may just sell them on Aquabid.com or just toss them.

I am gonna go to bed, so good night!

I know, I have a tetra in there now, I don't like it but until I get Amazon Prime again I am not gonna order another heater or really anything, well maybe a new filter.

When I put her in, the girls didn't remember her, then all of a sudden they didn't bother her when she was in the cup. Put her in and really nothing. Though she did try to fight with the best fighter, which may have gotten taken over by Rarity, not sure, but Rarity flares at them to get out of her turf lol.
