You can use fish food, since as it decays it will produce ammonia. Also, you can get the smallest amount of shrimp and use one and freeze the rest. The extra shrimp can be used as food for the fish when you get them. I purchased a $10 food chopper and make small batches of food.
Hey I never thought of that, that is a good Idea. I could buy 1/2 dozen of them they put the rest in the freezer then. You are very smart, I just guess My mind was not thinking

You could always give the tank a urine sample. That should kick the ammonia up a bit.

Lol naw I think I will pass on that one

I could not do the fish food thing either seeing that all I have is flake food for the FW fish so I guess it will just have to wait until tomorrow when I can get to the store..

YUCK....

 

[scott t]

Yeah that is what I was thinking also

Oh there is one thing that I forgot to post on here today, I called and placed the order for the glass baffles for my Sump. Its going to cost my around $25.00 for the glass and it will be ready on Friday!!

 

[meowzer]

YAYYYYYYY

 

[gemmy]

And that is one step closer to the goal.

 

[scott t]

When I pick them up on Friday maybe that will be my Project this weekend to get them silconed into the sump. I will have to go to Lowe's and see if I can get some Egg crate for the bubble trap tho..
You getting excited Meowzer I think there is going to be a Tank build going on here pretty soon..

Indoor projects are always good when it's cold out side.
