    Good to hear Vinnie. Good luck with it and I’m sure the robs will break it in. Funny about peewee he may just have some barbies in his closet. I’m also against guppies. That’s just to big of a tank. African cichlids may be a good fit. But if you do continue with discus I’m suggesting a gravel bottom. Something 1/4 or smaller. It’s just easier to vacuum clean. Sand will get sucked into the vacuum.

    One of my coworkers has over a thousand Barbie dolls. Yet she had not heard of the Treasure play set. She somewhat looks like a Barbie doll but Russian and not as skinny. For the time being she is trying to look like Marilyn Monroe. Except she is Russian and not as skinny.

    Here are a couple of early pics of the newly set up tank.
    I decided to go with small gravel substrate as of your advise.
    Fluval HOB and a megafied sponge filter.

    200 watt heater in there for now.
    Probably will throw Rob in there tomorrow.
    Am little plop and drop action.

    We built the stand yesterday.
    I made it look rustic and rough like everything else in this shop.
    I thought something nice looking would be way out of place.
    Considering the Barbies but I am afraid the help would just sit and look at them instead of work!

    WAY off the subject but we went to a goat show today.
    Nancy is very much into her goats!

    Here are my favorite two faces in the show

    Those are handsome goats, Vinni. How many goats per pen is recommended and what percent straw change per day is recommended for the pen? Will the goats eat freeze dried food or do they have to have natural food?

    Hey everyone.
    What does white stringy poop with hex or parasites look like under a microscope?
    Nancy has one and I found a string in on of the tanks.
