THANKS FOR YOUR HELP!!!

Life for the fishies is looking a little better.

Yesderday, I purged the tank and took out about 80% of the water. Left enough
in so all the base rocks and plastic plants were still covered so as not to
lose too many of the possible biobugs living there. Got the live plants rinsed
off, and reloaded the tank. In the Emperor 280 filter, took one of the filters
out (it was getting old) and replaced it with a stuffed stocking with carbon,
and another one with ammo-carb chips... Let it set for a few hours and had the
levels tested at the LFS. Water is very clear, and all was fine. Put all the
fishies back in. Treasure and Blackfin are enjoying it and Goldie is still
cautious, but eating... Today, tested ammo levels, still looking good, Goldie
still cautious. It's looking better though and bug-eyes are back to normal.

Still going to keep an eye on it though. I'm feeding them less, and they seem
to notice as they are really going for the pothos ivy and sucking the bejeebers
out of it... Can't win. Either I overfeed them and the tank ammo-spikes, or I
don't and they try to herbicide my plants... They make you crazy... I'll be
watching the tank daily to see if it starts to cycle due to the amount of water
I took out... Thanks again everyone!
