    Okay,

    So....of course....still cycling...and I have a TON of copepods just breeding away...they are everywhere, on the glass...on the LR, LS...powerhead etc. I hope this means I'm doing something right :)

    Just thought I'd share with a brief update...

    Well, they are pretty tough critters. Especially since there's nothing in the tank getting after them. Perfect time for breeding.............

    I've got ammonia!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    ;D

    Whoo hoo!!! It has begun...I started the tank on November first...it's currently...if I haven't had too much wine...the 18th...

    Not too shabby!!!!

    Any advise would be great.

    Ammonia is at 1 by the way...just glad to see something that's obviously a "spike"
