Included are two shots of the previously mentioned 29gal pond tank. I did end up getting a video of part of the "swarm of life" from a scoop of the tank, but I haven't managed to get it uploaded yet. The attached shot is horrible, but at least shows a little of the layout. The second shot is of a few of the detritus worms, which stay under the substrate until I feed, and then they appear everywhere. During the warm weather all the live food cultures (daphnia, scuds, mosquitoes (unwanted, but they work well), worms, etc...) seem to really boom, and so do the fish fry. This week I noticed new CDP fry (many thanks to Linda and Hiro for cluing me in on the "spontaneous fry" trick, moving the parents worked like a charm). At first I only noticed a few, but now there are dozens in the grow-out tank. More A. Hera, F. oeseri, and peacock gudgeon fry have been popping up... I also have extra breeding pairs/groups of CPD's, N. guentheri, A. Hera, F. oeseri, and peacock gudgeons, lots of juvie paradise fish, an axototl, and a long-fined bichir (who recently gobbled up one of my SAE's). Would consider trades on plants I don't have (or possibly fish) if anyone is interested. Cliff
