Another new and interesting Hillstream on it’s way… this week the 5 adult Tin Foils move to a different tank…

Greatly reducing the bioload, and space in use… Allowing me to even more deeply dive into the Hillstream’s…

A couple of these on their way…

I am slowly starting to imagine this about you @Magnum Man

Tin Foil tank is full of blended water ( topped it off with RO ) which means my manifold is done for 2 regional lines, my main tank group, and the other side of the house to the new Tin Foil tank… it’ll still be a couple days, until the RO catches up from filling the Tin Foil tank, I have a new, modified, Tidal 75 running in that tank, as well as still have a dozen Pothos vines… I’ll transfer a couple of the filter sponges over to the new tank… I am intentionally running double sponges in the Hillstream tank currently, so I could move a couple over… big changes, probably Thursday, before I’ll have time to introduce fish to the newly set up tank

3rd valve, with no one attached yet, will run upstairs to the 250 gallon tank, when I get it in place… this manifold sits just left of my RO unit… you can see the edge of the plate that holds the pressure pump for the RO efficiency, and the filters, on the right edge of this picture

Oooh, very cool loaches on my wish list! Can you say where you got them? (or pm me, please?) I'll reiterate my stiphodon goby suggestion, you have more room now without the barbs

Yeah , I was thinking sort of the same thing .

Well, at least these won’t be to hard to identify in the tank.. other than the other 2 saddle backs…

My tigers have gotten tough to identify.. some just have tiger tails, some have red tails, and today, added 2 more with blue tails… up next to the tank. I can see 4-5 tigers, but unless they flair their tails, you can’t see the color…

Test canary in the Tin Foil tank today, 4 yellow fin spot tail algae eaters… they have found each other, and a schooling around, exploring the tank… if they are fine by Thursday night, the Tin Foils will be transferred…
FOB….


The Red Lizards above, are shipping next week, to arrive on Wednesday, so hopefully the tank will have settled down, after transferring the TF’s lotta water going to get splashed…
