Work’s tank: 55gal

Woot! I am getting another tank tomorrow! a 20L. I am moving my Kuhli loaches in there (I have 8 now) and getting some guppies. This will be Sam's (JD) food. The others just do not reproduce enough.

I will be moving substrate, filter and plants to the 20L and eventually will move the ac70 from the 30gal and add a eheim ecco 2233 (got for free, just have to replace impeller and maybe the shaft) to the 30gal. The 10gal will turn into my snail breeding tank and the 5 i might try and raise brine shrimp.

Once i have successfully hatched and then raise the BS i would like to try a brackish tank. I am thinking a f8 puffer and bumblebee gobys.... now just to get all these plans into action....!!!
