    Was fun! Good to hang out and chat with you guys, and thanks to all @RBM AQUATICS.

    And thanks @A new day - will post pics soon, just need to sort out a few things as discussed.
    And hoping to get a few CRS in a couple weeks :D

    Extra thanks for the little minnows!

    Speaking of - they went into a mostly empty QT tank, filled with java moss running at about 24 deg (heater now off as it's just them in there). Right next to that tank, I fed my +- 9 day old ram fry and did a water change. Somehow while siphoning them into a plastic bowl (to clean their container a bit along with the w/c), 2 fry fell into the minnow tank without my being aware. I noticed them swimming around 5 minutes later! Freaked out and managed to catch them and put them back in their rightful container tank. So they somehow survived a temperature drop, different TDS (although only 10 points different), and a school of minnows, I guess thanks to the moss.
