Nanobuds

Nanobuds
lol just got back from camp. still a pile of rocks, but brittle star population is high, at least some life. gonna test water today.
Lutra
I didn't realize it took that long to cycle a pico. mellow.gif I was under the impression that they cycled faster than larger tanks?

Anywho pics! I at least took pics of my tank with a kitten in it! Though I don't think my husband posted it yet... dry.gif
Nanobuds
ok ok pics tomorrow. i am tired of this tank not being cycled, and if it is not cycled by tomorrow then i am gonna replace the sandbed with some from the LFS
Discofruit
Sorry to hear it isn't cycling well. unsure.gif
Nanobuds
