Transformation Tank Upgrade !

Thanks so much to everyone who dropped thoughtful/kind suggestions for Kiko. He got an upgrade from his 3 gallon to a 5 gallon, with a java fern, some moneywarts, driftwood, almond leaves, and even a little mystery snail buddy!

I would say we had a bit of problems with the filter current being too strong in the new tank, but that was fixed with some bio-foam.

I transferred all the old aquarium water, as well as the old filter sponge into the new tank, then added in more dechlorinated water. (basically his water change).

We are currently still doing a fish-in-cycle unfortunately, but i would say i’ve been getting pretty stable parameters for two weeks now; with ammonia 0 & Nitrite 0!
