I have moved a female rainbow back to the Center Piece tank. I needed to add several plants to the quarantine tank, and the plants prevented her from being able to swim fluidly in the smaller tank. I hope that she will continue to improve back in the big tank.
The Pearl Danios are doing well. They are quite curious. I thought they were going to be shy fish. Nooooooo...

Krebensis has grown. And, even though he is still quite small, he is swimming around unafraid of the Rainbow. Most impressive...
He is eating frozen food. He will often try larger pieces too large for his little body (ha).

Placed female rainbow in there. She has been in the school aquarium by herself. Fish had eaten her tail. She is on the mend.
I've added Malofix (sp) to help with the fin tear where the fish were eating her fin. She does have that white something on her lips, but she is eating well.
Replaced the filter with Eheim CompactOn 300. It has a more powerful head, and it is quieter. It is on full blast for the tank. The hot water helped to make the hose flex to get on the Eheim
One Rainbowfish seemed to develop that white something on the mouth. I treated tank with KanaPlex (sp) and Paraguard. It seemed to clear up. I will continue to keep them in quarantine for another couple of weeks. They will remain in there longer than anticipated until I see they are safe for the large aquarium.
Black Molly seems to be doing well. The last plants I ordered from Dustin's Fish Tank did not do well. I think I only have one left.
I'm going to order the same plants but from Buce Plants to see if I can get my plants going again.
I want another Java Fern is I can stop this browning.

Black Molly is much better. The Ich seems to be gone. I added another dose of Ich meds to help.
I added plants to the aquarium. These plants came from Dustin's. I placed them in water to just hang out before I actually placed in tank. They (crypts) did not do well. So, now they are in the aquarium, so I hope they will begin to turn and get better.
I'm going to keep the plants and black Molly in the tank for a month until the plants and fish get better.

Black Molly was not looking so well. She is now in the quarantine tank. She looked like she had Ick and something blue, like blue veil on her. I started treating her with Ick medicine.
She is doing much better today. The spots are gone, and she is eating. I am going to keep her in the quarantine tank for a month though.

I loved the look of the Java Fern Mat, so I have moved the first Java Fern Mat to the big display tank. I also purchased two more Java Fern Mats. They got here on Tuesday, Aug. 1st.
