CS> Sounds like an overloaded tank <g>.
nah, not really... define "overloaded"... AFAIK, overloaded means too many fish
for the biologics... i've never had any problems with disease or biologics...
at that time, there were only the two fish in the tank... they started in that
tank when they are toddlers only about as long as your thumb ;)
CS> We plan to setup the 70gallon tank in the near future.
i've plans, somewhere around here, for building a 100Gal or 200Gal tank... the
problem is where to put it... with the 30 and two 20s in the living room, and
several others with nothing in them, there's just no room... it is bad enough
that the 30 is up beside the TV on the wall unit :)
