I glued up a 1"/25mm siphon. It provides more water flow from the 20g tank to the 10g tank. It also has a Venturi on the output to help keep the air out of the top of the siphon. I'll do a video update tonight or tomorrow.

More likely tonight. :)

Lost another 3 fish. This puts me at 9 dead out of the original 15+.

I have a API master freshwater test kit that I am picking up tomorrow. That should provide a better look at what might be going on, also I never did salt the tank. :think:

Interesting results on the water test. Maybe its because I started with a fish tank that had been restarted(?) many months ago and all I did was add water to it from evaporation.

pH - 7.4
Ammonia - 0.25 ppm
N02 - 0 ppm
N03 - 0 ppm

Might be stress on the fish? :dontknow: what will be a good amount of salt to add to the fish tank? I have seen a few mixed things and not so sure?
