Day 9
Pretty much the same still, the Ammonia hasn't dropped but the colour is colouration is getting lighter, so it is getting there. Furthermore the Nitrites are getting darker each day, so going in the right direction for now.
Went fish window shopping today, talk about torture - could so easily have bought a couple of dozen but I know better
Turns out my Sister-in-law has a shoal of 6 Serpae tetras that she really doesn't want anymore, so I'll adopt them as my first fish to go into the 5 footer
Saw some beautiful fish today though, we're really spoilt for choice haha. Saw these rather hefty tetras that I've never heard of before and because I didn't make a note of their name I can't find them!!!
Looked like a bigger version of the Red Eye tetra, beginning with A the name (like Andessa or Addensa or something) they were a good 10cm, if not more 12 and shoaling this 300litre show tank. Saw some Bucktooth tetra too, suprised they'd sell them in an LFS
suppose some people might want them mind.
A lot of food for thought though, going to really have to think how I want this big tank to look - so whilst I can't get any fish, I'm going to buy some more mangrove ornaments
