Cool. Bring a sample by and maybe we can identify some of the stuff at Adopt-A-Stream. There's water fleas, a few phatom midges (the discus like them) and some small water beetles. 20-gallon Metaframe has a metal frame, and older style aquarium. What kind of plants do you have? I have Rubin and other swords, Water Hyacinth, Riccia and Bolbitus.

I might be able to get a bucket for you...and what kind of plants do you want? I am curious about the answer to Shangos question though; I scooped a bucket from that lagoon at Golden Gardens about three weeks ago, and was amazed at the variety of critters in it. The first thing I noticed was a LOT of weird whitish extending wormlike things, which after some research I think are the dreaded hydra! Hopefully a high daphnia population crowds out anything else unwanted.
