[What did you get done today?]

Made a water test station with styrofoam.
Way too excited about this… but overall pretty happy with it lol 

Its the little things in life 

Also I apparently have very high levels of phosphate

Hello, 

First time caller, long time listener! 
I got a bunch of Kuhli Loaches almost six months ago now and I noticed that one of them swam up to a bunch of Water Spirte that I have floating at the top. Just curious if this is a standard thing or something I should be monitor more closely? (Water parameters writhing good conditions)  

Thanks in advance!

This is my first summer doing a tub outside, I've been wanting to do for several years, but wife kept saying no to the idea. I found a 150 gallon Rubbermaid on marketplace for free and got it and set it up behind the garage and she never noticed for almost a month. 

🤣🤣🤣”for almost a month” 

it’ll be exciting to see the progression once you bring them in!

The last time I looked into the outdoor tub, which was last weekend, I saw a few babies. I didn't get them until mid June, so I didn't expect a whole lot of babies by the time I'll have to bring them inside, which will probably be in the next few weeks here in NW Ohio. 

That’s exciting! 
Have you been doing the outdoor tubs for a while? I had no idea about them until recently listening to the Ted Coletti podcast back in Jul. How significant is the growth/ development that you see from the fish when bringing them back in?
