The 30gallon lives again. I haven't yet teansferred the loaches or Xylem the bamboo shrimp as i want to slowly reintroduce occupents.

Currently stocked with 7 Tiger Barbs. Hoping to go up to 15-ish. I want to get more and bigger/taller driftwood before i transfer Xylem over so she has places to hide and feel safe.

I love all bettas but pale eyed bettas are something else

I am getting ready to move my 30 gallon tank upstairs, which is going to take a lot of effort and planning (need to make sure I have time in the day, take everything out, take the water out, keep the filters in water, keep part of the water, all the stuff).

So I set up a smaller sized tank upstairs in my apartment and moved the rasboras and Beau upstairs. Poor Beau, those tumors must be horrible. I used the gentlest net I have to move him and still the tumor areas got roughed up. There's a good amount of indian almond leaves in their, and I'll be keeping an eye on the parameters so hopefully he feels better soon.

Once the 30g is up and running up here the rasboras will move back there along with the loaches and shrimp (I left the loaches and shrimp downstairs for now, although I'll probably move the amano shrimp up to this tank shortly before the move. The loaches and Xylem the bamboo shrimp will be moved when the tank moves).
