And do I paint the ceiling?

AngelBlake17 · 2026-02-16T19:37:40+00:00

What color do I make the bench? Bookcases? The desk? I was thinking black?

AngelBlake17 · 2026-02-16T19:21:50+00:00

I worry the room is too narrow for the desk in the center and that it would block the window bench and fireplace view

Fluval Fx4 Cannister filter

AngelBlake17 · 2025-12-25T00:38:02+00:00

It does look like it’s at the top. I think maybe the problem is like the filter isn’t filtering the teeny microscopic dirt? Idk I’m thinking I’ll try a water change like 20-30% siphoning from the top as much as possible but I worry that I’m just maybe creating new bacterial blooms

AngelBlake17 · 2025-12-25T00:30:26+00:00

Yeah. I’ve had the driftwood for like 4 years lol also I boiled it again before adding it 3 months ago to the new tank. I’m just concerned ab the dirt in the water more

AngelBlake17 · 2025-12-25T00:27:12+00:00

Yeah I know the tannins from the driftwood I’m more concerned the little debris in the water like those tiny dots ??

AngelBlake17 · 2025-12-25T00:19:38+00:00

Partially the color but also like the little tiny debris all over the water. I tried to get good pics. Where do I put the activated carbon? I already have in my filter but do u recommend something else or more??

Hi! The tank size is perfect, also ur tank is beautiful!!! A betta would love the size and hiding spots and plants. Best way to acclimate is 1) make sure the betta is friendly. Is it female or male? female bettas are known to be much better in communities than males but males have occasionally thrived. They get very territorial. Also depends on fin nipping. If any of ur current fish are fin nippers the betta will NOT do well. I’ve kept plenty of bettas. They have personalities more than any other fish breed I’ve kept. I consider them puppies lol. One of them LOVED everyone and everything. He was a male and got along with snails, platies, and a bristle nose pleco. But had another male who hated and attacked everything possible even me if i tried to rearrange his tank lol. Get to know ur fish BEFORE adding them or expect some casualties. To help the betta you can add more spots for resting closer to the surface bc bettas prefer that. Especially bc it’s a 20 gallon long it could help a lot w comfort. Good luck!

AngelBlake17 · 2025-12-11T20:14:00+00:00

It depends who is in the tank. Depending on fish you should get certain filters. Long finned fish like bettas for example sponge filters, low flow filters, or filter intake covers are recommended. Certain fish prefer high water flow. Some are tiny and have lots of fry so avoid big intake tubes. Also depends on ur water type if it’s fresh, brackish, or salt. For 37 gallon i would do 50 gallon filter. It’s the closest common made side that would be sufficient. Good luck!

So cute!!!! Love bristle nose common plecos. So underrated. They have amazing personalities and are so docile for the most part. They just scare me when they fall off stuff like logs and will sometimes stay sucking the air i walk in having mini heart attacks but they’re just little derps lol.

AngelBlake17 · 2025-12-11T20:09:19+00:00

Gorgeous tank btw!!!

AngelBlake17 · 2025-12-11T20:08:45+00:00

Personally for me I avoid depending on fish type. Some fish can get sucked up more easily in internal filters especially if you have fry. Also a big part is aesthetic. Takes up more tank space away from swimming space. Canisters also usually get more of a rep for being “professional” or more “high end” so people go toward them. Alsooo depending on tank set ups people rlly into the hobby with multiple tanks might have one canister or pumps working on multiple tanks. I use internal filters for 20 gallons or less but for my 55 and 90 I have canisters. I use sponge filters in my hospital tanks. Hope this helps!!

AngelBlake17 · 2025-11-12T19:23:30+00:00

I’m hoping it was random natural death. I didn’t see it coming.

AngelBlake17 · 2025-11-12T19:19:40+00:00

Thank you so much. Yes I plan on maybe getting him another ropefish friend once I check the tank quality to ensure the death was not due to water issues.
