    Hi! Thanks for asking! Pieter has been helping so much! I have set up a planted tank now, including a nice piece of driftwood. Pieter gave me some plants from his tank and set up me up with proper substrate. The nitrites are climbing but I'm trying to manage it with regular water changes and Seachem Safe for the sake of my fish. At this stage also adding Seachem Stability with every water change. Amazing discovery this morning. I thought my one remaining guppy fry had died (the other one did a while ago), but this morning, after a week, it resurfaced! The male adult guppy is still around as well. Pieter also gave me some bacteria from his tank. In addition, I've invested in a Seachem Tidal 35 filter (running it together with my existing filter for the moment) and proper lighting. Going all out now.

    I know you guys like photos, but I'll post one again when the cycling process is complete, the plants have settled in and I've got some of Peter's Endlers in there. :)
