Thanks. Yeah they are already eating like crazy. No the bala (which reminds me that I need to get a few more), 4 tinfoil barbs, a florida gar, a leporinus faciatus, and about 8 plecos come in for the winter. We get just cold enough here it would kill them.

Any thoughts/comments/suggestions? Im about to add a little more mechanical filtration because the water isnt staying as clear as i would like. I clean my filters and it is sparkling for about a day and then becomes a little dirty again from all the fish stirring things up. I check my levels consistently and all of them are always good. I will show pictures once Im all done with the addition.
