About Yourself: Enter in a Petsmart following my girlfriend who wanted to get some food for our kitty. Got lost in the fish/aquarium section...whining for a tank for a week and finally got into it with a 10gallons. Since then I bought a 30 gallons that I'm struggling to run (I grow algae in it ...) and a 5.5gallons that I use as a breeder( this is not working as well ! ). I guess I used all the foot print allowed by my girlfriend so if I want to upgrade we will need to find a bigger place !
