Ok...after what has been a very trying and stressful month and a half I have done it. I may sit down and write my journal out on all that happened...it would certainly be a good laugh for you all and a great what NOT to do story. But this week I have finally gotten my 90g cycled...and stocked sort of. Will post a picture sometime when I get the nerve and it looks a little more settled...BY the way...just a word of warning to others....DONT place plants in 80+ degree water....it may help cycle for bacteria but plants deteriate FAST...anyways I just wanted to send a true heart felt thankyou for all those that assisted in my stupid questions and sometimes silly worry.

I am now the proud owner of a 90 gallon semi planted tank with pressurized co2. And a survivor of a Fishless Cycle!

6 Golden Clown Barbs
5 Otocinclus Niger
10 Green Neon Tetra
3 Pitbull Pleco (May send 2 back to a lfs once algae gets under control)
10 Black Neon Tetra
5 Corydoras Punctatus
and lots of algae....comes with two weeks of lights no fish and lots of nitrate I suppose.

They all look SOOOOOOOO tiny in that big tank LOL. But I wanted that look. Now to just get the plants to fill in.


THANKYOU Everyone who took the time in answering me!!

Hopefully I will introduce the angel from my 10 gallon, just have grown accustomed to seeing him with the betta next to my pc in my office.

A nice understocked tank. Congrats. But put that angel in as soon as you can. He'll looove it.
 
I am the proud owner of 2 understocked tanks. Makes life easier.

Congrats on making it through the fishless cycle. I did it as well and it seemed to take forever but worth it.

When I set my 10 gallon betta tank up I just squeezed the filter from my big tank in it. Instant cycle, so much easier!
 
Sounds like a nice set up, and your Angel is going to love it. If you wanna keep your plecos after the algae is under control, just drop in an algae wafer or two for them to munch on. They'll keep scrubbing on the tank to keep it clean, but they will be healthy and robust, happy fish.
