Ups and downs .... it's all a cycle but this one sucks.

so a long story short, Richard I will soon be needing to re-start my tank.
a few months back i had a really busy time and a problem with my auto feeder and then a failure on my part to act when i first saw the problem.
the result is a mass of green hair algae on everything everywhere.
in the next 2 weeks i will get the tank cleaned out and scrubbed and reloaded with new water.

so in about say 6 weeks i will be looking to re-stock .....

lesson learned: do not feed as much, make sure the auto feed does not dump to much and make sure to take the time to fix it *BEFORE* the green death takes over!

Hey There!! tank had been really good till i let it get out of control.

also I spoke with a local aquarium maint. guy who had been at the old retail store. he thought when the store closed that you were gone.

i told him to look up your website .... and we will be talking to you when i get new stuff.
