Fishtank Funkiness

So, remember I told you I had better pictures on my camera that would really do the whole fish tank funkiness factor justice? Well, without further ado, I give you: Fish tank FUNKINESS!!

One of our friends helping move these said, "I am pretty sure there's a cure for Cancer in there..."

Duckweed, get your Duckweed here!

NAS-to-the-TY!

And then later after they all were sitting in the garage, we washed out and cleaned out all of the tanks:

in the process of cleaning, filling, scrubbing, sorting gravel and  flushing out to clean some more!

Ooh, shiny!

I think more of the plan for this weekend is to rebuild the stand. Once the stand is built, we can paint it, and bring it into the house to start putting our "fish room," aka normal people's living room - back together again.  It is quite the room of chaos down there right now - tanks on the floor filled with fish in them. I fee like I am in a hatchery when I walk downstairs, and BOY did it SMELL like one in that room for awhile! Our garage sure smells pretty funky too. With all of the gravel out there, not to mention the 55-gallon tank with about one million snails still trying to cling to life in there, it is smelly.

Oh, and I did have this picture from my camera from about 2 weeks ago...one single leaf changing colors in our tree... fall was coming! Now almost all of the leaves have changed and a majority of them have already fallen. Guess that means it is almost time to hit the apple orchard!
