72G Bowfront FW Planted Journal Part II

Lovely tank!! Beautiful angels and sorry to hear about your male angel.

Oh..do your loaches "click" when they are happy/feeding? I used to have quite a few in a 75 and loved feeding time just because they made their happy clicking noises. I would love to have more, but my snails wouldn't.

and for the fish, i did mine a tank at a time. i would take the plants and put them in ziploc bags and mark them. then i would put the fish in bags and into a styrofoam cooler thing that was inside of a tote, then i would close the lid, and then drain the tank. if i didn't have enough bags i would just fill up the styrofoam cooler with water from the tank and put the fish that could tolerate each other better in the same cooler (i had 2). hope that helps.

ALL angels are from joe gargas except my adult PB blue platinum ghost angel I originally had around 30, sold the smallest and kept the strongest and fastest growers

I was thinking about that, but prob. a rubbermaid tub as the only styro boxes i have hold 3 gallons each, and yeah;0

im probably switching a lot of stuff out...


So far, I am getting ADA soil super excited about that And also a LED lighting system as my dad wants to save some $$$ on electricity as this fixture uses like 216 or 260 watts an hour...
