Yay, laura! Congratulations! Now keep a close eye for the next few weeks -- we're simply looking for stability now. Once you see stability, you can ease off on the testing.

How about a tank pic?

Congrats on the cycle completion !! as Seleya said look for the stability in the tank and then you wont have to test so much.

I vote tank pic too !

Sure, but I'll have to recruit help from hubby or one of my kids tomorrow. Pretty pathetic....I haven't learned how to get the digital pictures onto the computer yet. My daughter helped last time I posted a picture.

Yes, it's a bit over crowded. The cave belongs in a much bigger tank, and that's exactly where it well go in May....I hope! Next water change I want to get the anacharis into the gravel, if possible. Will replace the silk plants with jave fern and or moss. Early on in the cycle I wanted to change the gravel, but decided I didn't want to delay the cycle any more than possible, so kept it.

Oh, I give up!

It's cute! And your platies look very happy.
