Thanks! I'm warming up to the rocks too. Still not sure I approve though. Haha! I might have to re-arrange them. I honestly don't care for the reddish brown rock either! I might have to go find another grey one.

Well today I went into my fav LFS here and noticed...what is this?? Rasbora espei??!?! ARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRG!!! He only had two left, so I bought them, and told him to let me know when he gets more. So I'll be re-homing my regular Harlequins since the Espei are sooooo much nicer! Tank looks a lot fuller with only two more fish. So I think eight Rasboras in there is tops, so I'll get six more of the Espeis when he gets them in, and just have a total of eight Espeis and the one Betta. Sound good?

Oh...and guess what I found in the CLEARANCE bin? A Hagen CO2 kit! So I bought that for the $25 clearance price. Hehehe... I just put the Hagen mixture packets into it. The owner said the kit is really old, so they might not work. Oh well, can't go wrong for $25. I figure to keep the CO2 consistent I will change it out once a week.

Oh, and am I going to have troubles with algae since I am adding CO2 with super low light??

And...is it worth my while to buy a $20 Hagen GLO 15w 6700K T8 bulb for my current fixture, or should I just save my $20 and put it towards a power compact fixture in a month or two?

My dog recently gave me a $920 vet bill, so I'm really scraping right now!
