Well, I won't say that I am on a roll, but I am slowly improving my tank   
   maintenance schedule. It has only been ten days since the last tank   
   maintenance, which itself was an improvement over the time before that.   
      
   Today I did the usual routine, which included changing twenty-three gallons   
   of water -- which is well over a 50% water change, and probably closer to a   
   60% water change -- cleaning out the the sponges, filters and baskets in the   
   two Penguin 330 Bio-Wheel filters, dusting off the rocks a bit, and removing   
   algae from the three panes of glass. I also netted out some of the floating   
   detritus as well.   
      
   My mbunas were expecting a feeding afterward, but I usually let the tank   
   settle for a day or two after water changes, before I feed them again. I   
   have continued the routine of feeding them every other day, which, while   
   they may not like it, probably keeps the tank fresher a little longer   
   between water changes.   
      
   The young male mbuna that was attacked and injured about ten days ago   
   continues to recover. To my surprise, fungal infection did not set in,   
   despite the fact that his raw flesh was clearly visible as a result of his   
   wounds. His wounds are almost completely healed now, and covered over with   
   scales; and his tail fin and pectoral fins likewise continue to mend.
