As well as the side filter I also placed an assortment of plastic plants, both floating and gravel weighted, and assorted live plants
 Consisting of Hornwort and a few others and with them came the snails, two different kinds... All of the plants I once and a while give a dose of Plant Nutrient for freshwater.

So i'm pretty sure that the tank was cycled enough before I put the fish in, the two fish that I started with and tested with for two days are: Otocinclus Catfish. The two of them watched guppy, after guppy come and go, even though I used and used all treatments I could think of. I also use Waste control, an organic Waste Eliminator...

As for the chlorine and chloramines I used AquaPlus: Tap water conditioner... so I’m pretty sure that there levels are down if not non-existent... and since I removed all adult and store bought guppies I’ve since never lost a fish, so I’m sure its either a) the age of the fish, or b) the numerous diseases that are found in chain pet stores due to all their tanks on a central water circulation system...

So far though in the 33 gallon tank, I was using a bubble stick hooked up to the air pump. Though two nights ago I thought it may be making the extra bubbles gather as well, so I instead hooked up a larger side filter with all the same filter media as the 10 gallon, As I said about the bacteria additive used in that tank was Cycle: Reduces Fish Loss More Nitrofiers Keeps Aquariums Healthy Rapidly matures new aquariums. I also used the Chlorine, Chloramines remover in this tank as well...

In both tanks I Watch the PH levels and use PH Adjust up/down depending on levels in the tanks..

I had tried to look for the Edmonton fish club earlier, but I must have found an old page, because it didn’t seem active since fall. But I will look again, in hopes of finding a comrade

For the fish in the 33 gallon, I do like the schooling fish, especially the neon tetra's, but I mainly wanted it to be a grow out tank for the guppies, but if I get another tank in the future I might take the guppies there instead. And for the other tank mates, I'm definitely getting the ghost/glass catfish, because that’s what my girl friend likes, and a few female bettas as well for my daughter and my niece... So I’m definitely leaning more towards the fish that don’t fin nip...

The white clouds I think will fit nicely in there because I’ve never seen them to be much of the aggressor in my previous 20 gallon tank (which is still running in the north) and that was a pretty aggro set up... the ghost/glass catfish did quite well in that environment as well...
