Regular Member balashark Posted July 24, 2021 Regular Member Share Posted July 24, 2021 First, wow, the forum looks totally different Koko,,, as things tend to do when you've been gone this many years, I guess. We haven't had an aquarium up in a while, other than a betta or two in a 2.5g minibow. But after the recent loss of our beloved boxer dog Bailey, my wife and I decided it's time to have some fish again. So I pulled the old 72-gallon bowfront out of storage, gave it a good cleaning, new filter, new light (when did those get so expensive?!) and took my son down to the petstore to pick out some decor. We got it up and running a week ago -pic below- and today added a few fish,,, little platys that, along with some borrowed media and API quickstart, are gonna help me continue cycling this bad boy. As I was telling my son about the nitrogen cycle, I remembered where I learned about it (and SOOOO much more) and thought I'd swing by and see if anyone's still around. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member spider man Posted July 25, 2021 Regular Member Share Posted July 25, 2021 I have a 1S year old golden retriever. She is my best friend so I understand your loss. Your tank is beautiful. Are you doing tropical or goldfish 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
