Since I got an LFS to do some cleanup and water testing (previous blog post) I've been working to get the water parameters back into normality. I'll post about it, telling my journey, for I hope others with the same skill level as mine (low...) and also the same time to dedicate to the tank as I have (not much...) can learn from my experience. In fact, that is half of why I post this blog... it is so easy to read about what the high fliers in this hobby get done (spending ...
