Filter cleaning today.
You are getting sleepy... you only hear the sound of my voice... you must do water changes... water changes... water changes... water changes...

30% WC in Lola's 20gal, 20% WC in the 6gal snail aquarium.
Cleaned up Lola's filter some, molted shrimp skins stuck to it. Yuck.
Rearranged her aquarium, trying to get an idea of how much more stuff I can load it with! She is happily exploring.

Re: What did you do with your tank today
Interesting! Can I do that with water from water changes? I never thought of that. Although I did use old gravel to cover the soil on my plants, helps keep the moisture in.

Doodoo water. Hahahaha.
I didn't even think of the fact that it was brackish! My snails are in fresh though, so I could use that

I'm planting some seeds today. Maybe I'll go do another snail WC. I'm sure they've pooped enough since this morning.. -____-;
