So up early today down in my fish room looking in my remote fuge , what do I see ? Tons of pods and stomatella snails on the glass !!!!! I don't think I will ever get tired of looking in my tanks and finding new life . every bit of this hobby facinates me . Its so easy to get caught up in keeping this param or that param and forget to take care of the basics . The building blocks of life . Bacteria , plankton and pods . I did it when starting to stock this system . I wanted fish NOW !!!! But if you are patient and can appriciate the first critters like above then I believe you will have a great system
