Mission accomplished: happy fish

I filled up both tanks, scraped off the algae off the large one, re-connected the filter and heater, pulled out some of the Java moss, which can be invasive, and generally made the fish much happier. I used both the water conditioner and one for slime coat. I cleaned some of the filter out, while leaving the other sections intact so there'd be good nitrogen-eating bacteria. Now both tanks are bubbling happily and the fish are swimming in their new space. I've washed my arms all the way up past my elbows (fish tanks can harbour germs, of course), and now I think I"m ready to go on to bed. Good night for real this time. :)
