    cycling question

    Rocky the blenny is fine, he comes out every day and is very active, he is munching on the algae and my husband was over feeding him pellets, thats why I thought the algae started to form. ammonia and nitrites remain at 0.

    I have no idea how it made it with out water, this is my first tank, I got rock from two different stores, all supposed to be cured. The only thing I can think of is, I was looking for particular shapes, I was buying so much rock that the guy at one store took a peice from one of their sale...

    I have 5 gallons on standby for water changes now, I will keep a real close eye on levels. thanks. I hope he makes it, he's a funny little guy, can't believe he made it home in a rock with no water, and through a pretty harsh temp. drop last night.

    I live in St. Louis MIssouri. Low 100's in summer but very humid. Our family room is in the basement which always stays cooler than the rest of the house. I would like to put the tank down there since that is where we spend most of our time. I have heard some thing about it being harder to...
