The large rock on the right.... and was just commenting on the comment to not comment....

=P

Hehehehehe! Well I can't wait for the wood to sink fully so I can do something cool with the rocks. I also have some of eklikewhoa's Purigen recharging in bleach, and tonight I'll rinse it and move it over to a Prime and water solution... Should be ready to go in the tank some time tomorrow, and that'll help me get rid of those tannins I so do NOT want in this tank.

thread's pretty weak without pics...

Where you at now?!?!!

[aquabee]

I was at FG today, as well, and I was looking at the furcatus, too, but didn't get any. Almost got some tetras. . .

Were you looking at the HY511 tetras?? Those were pretty bad@$$. Healthy and well-colored.

Agreed, I like the placement Except maybe the large one on the right... but I'm not commenting on that.

Those little guys are so cool.

You mean the large rock on the right, or the wood piece? The rock is just there anchoring the wood.

Yeah, the furcata rainbows are awesome!! Really active, which makes the white clouds look really dull. They've never really been discussed in the context of dither for shellies, so I'm excited to try it out once the tank is a little more stable. I'll add the pearly occies I have then and see how things work out.

Looking good b. I kinda like the wood where it is. Gives the tank and interesting depth of field.

Ok! Here's pics. Please don't comment on the rocks/rock placement because they're just in place holding down the new driftwood as it waterlogs fully. I'll rearrange them and the shells later. Helpful comments welcome on wood placement. I tried to get good pics of the furcata rainbows but finally ended up taking a video as well. Again, this is all really haphazard right now but I had to post something.

I also made my first impulse buy ever!! (Thanks to watching eklikewhoa and his impulse buys lol.) I bought 6 absolutely stunning furcata rainbows (Pseudomugil furcatus), aka blue-eyed forktails.

PICS!! I want pics! I bet they're beautiful!

And when you get your scape done, I'd love to see pics of it, too!

[eklikewhoa]

Glad I had something to offer the people here.

OK! So I went to FG to pick up some new driftwood. I talked to them for a long time about where it came from, how it had been treated, etc. I felt pretty comfortable after the conversation so I picked up 4 pieces. I've soaked 'em in hot water, scrubbed them, and added them to the tank. They're nearly waterlogged since they came from water, but they still need some more time, and will probably need some Purigen, which I'm finally recharging. Will work on tweaking my initial scape tomorrow if the pieces are finally heavy enough to stay put.

I also made my first impulse buy ever!! (Thanks to watching eklikewhoa and his impulse buys lol.) I bought 6 absolutely stunning furcata rainbows (Pseudomugil furcatus), aka blue-eyed forktails. They are doing very well so far and the white clouds are a little confused but are dealing with the change well. ) The light is off for the rest of the night, but I'll post more pics tomorrow or the day after, when I'm a little happier with the scape. I'm going to start a new thread FINALLY!!

I just saw the thread about the party. I won't say for sure I'm not going, but I tend to be shy about those kinds of things. So unless I already know the people personally, I don't feel comfortable going.

You already know me and B . . .
