So, I finally got fish and have had them here for a little while. Found a lfs that was super stocked with a lot of different types of fish (except black kuhlI loaches which they apparently rotate with kuhlI loaches every couple of months and no female dwarf gourami for like another month). I got some Amazon sword which has grown like crazy and my tetras, dwarf gourami, and black kuhlI loaches love. I need to move some substrate around because the roots are popping out and I don't think it's deep enough (though my loaches love hiding and playing in them). My dwarf hair grass is not doing too hot and neither is my anubias (any tips on keeping those alive/helping them thrive, it's probably a lack of co2). My loaches are really active and the smallest one likes to zoom around the tank and play in the bubbles from the filter. I'm pretty sure I'm over feeding and not cleaning well enough because of algae growth on the tank walls and my rock. But it's difficult for me to tell if they've had enough cause my platies eat pretty much everything. I've also had a lot of issues with evaporation and have to add more water than I take out every water change. Anyways, depression sucks and I'm not as on top of things as I'd like/want to but seeing them swim to the glass when I'm watching them does make me happy.
