It doesn't take long for the pothos to start using up what it can find in the tank. After only a week, the roots have stretched out over an inch now. Pothos is a great, natural nitrate sponge.

[BigAlsInnes @BigAlsInnes]

The tank is almost ready. Just waiting for the fish. Hopefully in a few more days. We have added a pothos to the back of the tank. We rinsed the roots, and put the pot into the back. After a couple of days, they are reaching into the tank. Pothos are great natural nitrate sponge

So new gravel is in, Carib-Sea Midnight River, a nice little dark pebble. The dry layout done, & the tank is filled. We put some old filter media (to bring some bacteria over), and filled it up. Finished with a bit of Big Al's Water Conditioner and some bacteria starters/boosters

[BigAlsInnes @BigAlsInnes]

Filter Time! We are going with a Fluval 307 Canister with a Fluval in line UVC clarifier. Working on a hardscape set up..

[BigAlsInnes @BigAlsInnes]

First steps in the redesign, drain and clean the tank, remove the old fish, and then pick some new decorations. So many choices!

[BigAlsInnes @BigAlsInnes]

We have a nice little greencheek conure staying with us for the next couple of day. If anyone is interested in this little one, he is available now.

[BigAlsInnes @BigAlsInnes]

We have an exciting new tank design coming soon. It starts today! This is the current look..
