Hi Rick, sorry I haven't updated lately. The 55 is doing good, except for some brown algae on the sand and some green on the glass. I'm assuming this is a normal process after a move - perhaps a mini-cycle? The ammonia, nitrites and nitrates are "acceptable" and the fish act and look great so I'm just trying to leave it be for the time being and let nature take it's course. I need to find a place where I can buy more Fluval tubing because the previous owner had cut it shorter than I need it. Once I do that I will relocate the input and output hoses, and then probably add a powerhead. I've got copepods on order for the mandarin - should arrive Friday.
My next project is setting up the aquascape in the 46 bowfront horse tank, and I've ordered a bunch of live plants which should also arrive Friday. (sounds like a sick day or vacation day Friday, doesn't it?) (wink)
I had the day from hell yesterday and never even went near my computer once I got home from work - that might be a first!
