The journey begins....So I filled up a 10 gallon today using well water. Looks like real weak tea. Threw together an "old school" disposable filter I used in the 60s and 70s, as the old farm house had similar water, to clear up the water before moving forward. I don't want to use tap water as it is injected with hydrogen peroxide (kills almost all bacteria), run through an iron filter and then a water softener. This is going to be fun!

My question, the plan is to use RR for the first round. Think pulverized 36% grain based pond pellets will be ok for food? Any other recommendations?

Edit: I ordered a LED hood today for this brood tank so I can extend the photoperiod to 12 hours or so when I'm ready to attempt getting a spawn.
