No we dealt with jaundice with our daughter and we'd gladly have gone that route this time. He had fluid in his lungs and he's had issues adapting to breathing outside the womb. The term Persistent Pulmonary Hypertension was mentioned in the beginning but they weren't sure 100%. All I know is he did really well today breathing entirely on his own!

That's great news! I hope he's home with you soon!

He's coming home in 12 hours!

Maybe I'll take a pic of him in the tank so this is a little more relevant?

you must be excited! congratulations!

maybe when he's older, you can hook up a hamster ball to an oxygen tank, and let him go scuba diving in the tank.

Wow, this is excellent news! This is a tank journal after all, and since it's your tank, I think you should be allowed to journal all you want

I agree that a FTS with child is in order though

How's little Bryce doing?

Someone dug my thread up on RC so I thought I'd waste some bandwidth here as well.

Only change is I plumbed the fresh water tank and mix tank into the cabinet. There are 3 valves. The 3 divert water into the display, back into the mix tank for mixing or direct to basement drain for rinsing the tank out.

Next on my list is installing a powered lift for the light. It will involve a linear actuator mounted to the ceiling and a few grooved bearings. Already I find it impossible to access the tank so it needs addressing now. I hope to have the light lift parts in a month or so.

And Bryce is doing awesome thanks for asking!
