Re: Introduction
I am amazed that the sole survivors of my crash were 4 Killie tetras. Tough little fish.
Have completely dismantled the 44 g pentagonal tank, weak bleached, rinsed and air dried all plants, rocks, gravel, features and the external filter. Plan to reassemble and cycle for 24 hrs, then introduce the Killies. After a week I will check the chemistry and consider restocking. Thanks for your interest |

Re: Introduction
Up Date
First things first, thank you all for your kind words. Here's where my tank is today: Aquarium day 6 1-7-12 44 g pentagonal rebuild established for over 5 years. Collapsed following introduction of a feature which had been stored for years. Lost 7 huge angels and a very large pleco. Tank went white, pH dropped and ammonia/nitrates rocketed. Attempted water changes, bacterial, pH, and salt supplementation were futile in spite of the use of ammo carb in an external filter. Started over. Broke down the set-up. Followed with weak chlorine soak, multiple rinses and air dry of all features. Fresh water, filter, added Neutral Regulator and Microbe-Lift Special Blend. Now up and cycling with original 4 Killie tetras doing well, tough little fish! They survived the crash. Added 4 cardinal tetras and an albino cory two days ago. Also doing very well. Any suggestions for additions to my population? Now, for another 5 years of beauty.... |
