Im Feeling The Need To Tank Shuffle Lol

[Alasse]

Yep, here i go again
 
5ft angel tank - Yep these inhabitants are all gonna move to the 4ft. Now the reasoning lol. The 4ft has plant lighting on it, i wanna go back to fully planting this tank along the lines of the 3ft planted, the angels and other inhabitants will appreciate that.
 
4ft goldie tank - These guys are gonna move to the 5ft. Reasoning, i can limit the decor in the tank and the 4ft light that is on the 5ft will be sufficient for anubias and java fern. While the tank is empty (and the 3.5ft is empty) i want to level this tank.

Oh no.

 

[LyraGuppi]

Will probably be following along!

 I've got the shuffling bug too! Comes every year around this time!

 

[Alasse]

Shufflin time again.....and gonna be slow going with only 1 good arm and having to wait for help to move tanks/stands etc when hubby is available..........but gonna get it done
 
The 5ft is now moving down to the fish room, to get it in, the 5ft pep tank has to be emptied and put on the shelf underneath, then i can move the cupboards out and the 5ft stand to where they were.....so Peps are currently sitting in a temp tub while i organise some furniture (and wait for my poor non tank/fishy hubby to give me a hand lol). Then i will put the Pep tank back together.
 
Then the shuffling begins with some other tanks....
 
Trying to get as many tanks as possible into the fish room, being as there is a door to outside in it, it makes it VERY easy for water changes

Shufflin time again.....

I know the feeling my hands are almost wrinkly from being in the cube so much, Ha ha. Anyway I just planted it up so no more messing with it for a while.................I think.

I got the 5fts on the stand and in place. I have decided not to put a background back in the goldie tank for a while (i really need two good arms and more time to do it) So it is filled and ALL the goldies are currently in it, the ranchu will be moving back into their own tank once its moved and ready. I have got tanks empty, emptying and temp tanks all over and a great BIG mess lol

 

[Alasse]

Down to the last nano....and what do i do...break it!!!! Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrggggg
 
So 1 less tank....so the betta girls are now in the pink nano

 

[benthyer]

Oh no sorry about the tank.

Is it repairable at all or did you completely shatter it?

 

[Alasse]

It has a curved front panel, and thats the panel that broke, so not repairable. I unclipped the hood with built in light (using it on a different tank lol) but the main part of the tank is cactus

 

[Jenste]

Ugh so sorry - cracking tanks is the WORST feeling!  
 
Can't wait to see pictures once the shuffle is done lol.   I feel like I need more large tanks so I can play the shuffle game - I love redoing my 4footer as it is!

 

[NickAu]

Oh no. Time to get another cube?
 
I forgot to wash the substrate before putting it into my cube.................. Cloudy water.

 

[Alasse]

Not in any hurry to get another, the one i had are ridiculously expensive new.....i got mine cheap as new, that deal wont come around again anytime soon i am betting lol
 
I'll keep my eye out for another second hand, sometimes they appear.
 
I have other nanos here i can use (and another like the one i broke) so no big drama

 

[NickAu]

Yes these nano tanks can get expensive, I paid like $120 for a 20 lt Aquael .

 

[Alasse]

I am looking at a rimless nano i found the other day, very nice tank i must say.....
 
And a bookshelf tank, another nice one!
 
Too many nice tanks out there lol
