sooo lovely, also want to know what issues you had?

[Kevin22]

Thanks, guys. I was out of hobby for a while and made huge mistake after I got them.
Forgot to turn heater back on after water change.
The next day, tempture dropped to 23 degree.
Tough guys. They are ok now.

Not john's fault, my bad

So glad they came through the deep freeze.

Thanks, they could be killed. 4 of them stopped feeding for a while

Don't you hate that? I've done it many times in my many years keeping. Lost some fish, some it didn't phase them. One of the reasons I switched to power stations with switches, gives me a visual queue that the heater is not on and only takes a flip of a switch. Glad yours came through they are looking excellent.

[Kevin22]

Thanks, I forgot to flip the switch.
Getting rusty, lol

Very nice wilds in a beautiful setup. Congrats. Nice to hear they have recovered. To avoid this issue in the future, position the heater/s horizontally and near the bottom. This way you do not need to switch them off during water changes, since they are always below the water line.

Looking very nice. Glad the fish are doing well. Good luck!

Very nice fish in a lovely tank. I too am happy they survived the heater mishap. I have everything plugged into a master switch, everything is turned off during a WC. After the WC if the pump is not running or the sponge is minus bubbles I know I forget something.

Very nice indeed!! John is getting in some great stock. You've done a great job with them.

[Kevin22]

thanks, I'm doing it now.

[Kevin22]

thanks. I won't forget about the heater anymore.
