Miracle Gro Organic Choice for the dirt

Also got some dolomite from there
And some potash from Suburban Lawn and Garden
Capping it off with some black blasting sand I got from Tractor Supply Co.
Total for all this was MAYBE $60, and I have enough to last a lifetime.

Put the potash and dolomite in the bottom, covered it with the dirt. It's ready for the cap and water now, but I'm waiting on some driftwood to come in so I can put that in there and plant without having to go back in and disturb the soil.

Also picked up some clown loaches to take care of my snail problem in the 10g. Will transfer them to the 30g when it's ready. The girl at Petco screwed up and gave me 5 clown loaches for $8. Score.
5 clown loaches are gonna need more than 30G.
