    The floramax says it has free water clarifier in it. But I can't find it. I didn't see anything in the stuff I washed and put in the tank... and I just went thru the rest of the bag... nothing... What am I looking for? A small pouch of something? It wouldn't already be mixed in would it?

    A small bag, the size of a ketchup packet from a fast food place. Might have gotten buried when you emptied it in the tank.

    Well I have no idea where it went but it's not in the tank. That was my biggest concern...

    Refilled the tank slowly and with a small plate sitting on the gravel so I don't have a cloudy tank now.

    They can be hard to find in local stores. Best bet would be a non chain fish store, or of course online. Can sometimes get a deal on aquabid.com . Ebay is probably cheapest but delivery times can suck.

    Filter's on it's way... Driftwood is soaking in a bucket because it's releasing tannins like crazy, makes the water look like a very strong cup of tea... not really the look I'm going for, even though it is kind of interesting. Gives the tank a mysterious look, like you don't know what's gonna come swimming out of the shadows... A 99% water change took care of that...

    If you fit it in a pot and boil it for a few hours it'll speed up the process of tannin release.

    Don't have a big enough pot... the bucket with hot water and changing the water twice a day seems to be working well enough...

    Filter should be here today so I can start seeding it in my other tank!
