Hi: Retired 65 year old FW tank enthusiast was surfing another site and found you here. Married for an awful long time, 7 grandchildren so far and one great grandchild. Recently moved from Cape Cod MA to Cape Fear, (Leland) NC. We did not try to move plants and livestock as we were very fortunate to be able to give it away to a person that was expanding her FW setups.
Started our low-light 20 gallon hex first with an anubia, java fern, and some java moss. Added twelve rosy reds after cycling and found out that they were pretty well infected. No surprise there. Took surviving 6 and transferred to the 10 gallon hospital tank. Treated as best we could and they are all doing fine there after 3 months. Added some long-finned zebra danio's to the 20 gallon hex.
Started up the 70 gallon tank. Substrate in, initial plants arrived and set in approximate locations. They are taking root now and showing new growth. Currently cycling the tank before adding any fish. Also want to get the plants set in final positions for now before adding fish as well.
Thats where I am at today.
Thanks for making it so easy to register here. Some sites have not found out how to do that.
