Thought I'd start a journal because work is slow today. (Dont tell anyone lol) First time ever owning any type of aquarium and am about a month and half in. Added some type of xenia(?) 2 weeks ago that melted in 24 hours... worried me that the tank is still not ready... decided I wanted to try...

I am so very glad I saw this. I just bought some chaeto from them yesterday and it never really dawned on me to check it and qt. Guess I will have to find somewhere to stuff this and keep an eye on it for a while.
