We put a different background on the flatback hex.

We also got a versa top lid cut to the shape of the tank. Before we just had an old plastic lid cut to fit that I'd have to pick up to get into the tank. Much better now!

And hopefully someone noticed we rearranged the decor. Made a cave out of the wood too, sort of.

The 10g on the desk will be home to a Striped Red Eye Puffer (Carinotetraodon Salivator), if anyone actually wanted to know :p
 
Very sad update, the pale angel has passed away. :-(

It's alright. She didn't move about much. She was yellow in the store and her color never came back. She barely ate.. I probably should have medicated her but I didn't know what to use on her. :/
 
Not much going on ATM. The 10g has cleared up and dad fixed the background ^^

Glad you like them Ch4rlie :)
 
So, a very sad update for today.
 
I came home from being out and about all day with my fiance, to find Tinkerbell laying on the bottom of the tank, struggling to swim.
I moved her to the 10g so that she wouldn't be bothered by other fish, tried moving her gently back and forth in the current.
 
She would wiggle out of my hands and I'd leave her be for a while, you could see her trying to get herself up but kept failing. I helped her to the surface once and she took some gulps of air.
I helped her to the surface a little bit later and she opened her mouth very wide for a moment, closed, and then went completely still. :-(
 
So I'd like to say Rest in Peace my beautiful little princess Tinkerbell, I will miss you so very much and am so happy I got to spend time with you in your last moments.

Thanks ya'll. I got it all cried out last night I think. I tested the water last night in case anyone is curious, 0 ammonia, 0 nitrites, 20-40 nitrates.
 
She is now buried in the backyard next to my guinea pig.
 
The gold angel has now been named Lemongrab (at least by me, I don't think my dad will call it that)
Lemongrab is what I intended to name the gourami if it were a male, since it's a yellow and grumpy character from a cartoon Adventure Time.
 
She's not being replaced by the angel at all just thought it was time to name him and had forgotten I wanted to use that name. :)
