oh thanks vancouver, i thought they might be rasboras when you mentioned it, but i'm still nto a 100% positive so i dont wanna say for sure, you know. when i go back to the LFS i'll check and probably pick up some more of them too. thanks!

oh, and n3ont3tra, just to let you know, they aren't full mollies, they're a mix breed, but you're right, salt is still a good idea, and i put a little in every couple weeks.

thanks for the advice, more tetras sounds pretty good. and yeah, i just have to run out tomarrow to pick up some of the wafers. i had some, i just ran out recently, so i'm going to get more. they are really useful. okay, updated list to pick up next week. any fixes are appreciated. 2 Gold...

Somewhat recently bought a 55 gallon tank after officially deciding my (completely too small :D ) 20 gallon was basically falling apart (its at least 15 years old. dont ask. :/ ) so here's a list of the fish i have currently in the 55: I'm not sure but it seams somewhat empty, to me. Any...
