*UPDATE*

Here's what's happened over the last week:

(Lots of deaths The tanks are in a "transition phase" right now - moving 10 gallon to fish room, converting 55 gallon to cichlid tank, school ending in a month and a half so I have to take down school tanks soon).

-Deconstructing the 10 gallon in my room to put in fish room (once it's completed)

-The Khuli Loach and the Corydora at school died

-Moved Weather Loach and Albino Corydora to 10 gallon community tank at school (took the place of the Khuli and the Cory that died).

-Will move Fantail and Lionhead to outdoor pond soon - the Electric Blue is stressing them out now

-Found the Leopard Eel! I didn't see him the whole month we were fighting ich, and he just showed up two days ago like it wasn't anything! Man those spiny eels are tough! The cool thing is he is a lot more active now, and he's coming out in the daytime more (must be secure with the surroundings, what with the Reed Fish - A.K.A. Rope Fish - gone, and only a few other fish in the tank). I've heard it's possible to breed spiny eels (although pretty challenging) and I think I'll get him (her?) a mate once I set up the fish room. That would be awesome.

-Newts in aquaterrarium at school still won't eat - but they are still alive and I'm still trying

-Lost a Silvertip in aquaterrarium at school, and I will move Silvertip in 10 gallon (by itself right now) to take its place

-Purchased a beautiful male gold/metallic/pink Molly for the tank at school (will hopefully serve some breeding purposes in future also) and 3 Ghost Shrimp (not sure if I was thinking of them as feeders or what, letting nature take its course I guess). 1 Dead, 1 Missing, 1 Okay but hiding. The molly is getting along with the others and the Kissing Gouramis like an old friend.

-Hopefully next week will be better!
