Just moved into our new home, we were bouncing around renting for awhile and my 29G has been sitting pretty neglected over the past year or so. The cube was setup back in 2010 which was a transfer/downsize from a 55g that I started in 2006, so almost everything in it aside from livestock had been established over 13 years. Now that my home is almost done being renovated, I finally pulled the trigger on a new RSR250 as it will have the perfect display spot in our Family Room. Should be a week or two before it arrives and in the mean time I will gather the equipment and plan the transfer/setup accordingly.
