Tank update, pics soon!

I had a bout of ick in my Q-tank...thank goodness for API Super Ick Cure!  All better now.  I did, however,  lose Disease in the process.  Poor guy, he was riddled with ick.  The remaining 3 went into the big tank a couple weeks ago.  Dispite the white male molly's size (Big Face), Pustulio has remained ruler of the tank.  Seems to be a mutual respect (or fear) between the two.

The Q-tank then became home to baby platy for a short time.  She loved it but had to move back to the net...  Mysterious deaths (daily) in Tom's 30 gallon.  We got the surviving fish out and into the 10 gallon (4 otos, 2 pygmy cory cats and 4 ember tetras).  We lost one more oto and one tetra.  The rest of the bunch seem to be doing great!

Plans are in the works for my next tank: a planted 20 long with pygmy cory cats, small tetras (neon or ember)and maybe red crystal shrimp.  So excited!  I can't wait!  Stay tuned!
