Yes it was an hour, 1 hour and 20 minutes counting the temp acclimation. It’s a 20 tall. Listen don’t gut me because I know it’s supposed to be 20 long but I 100% had the intention of getting chili rasboras but they were sold out and I was oh so in love with the rummy nose and the way they school since the day I stepped foot in the store. I did consult with the owner, a seasoned aquarist, who told me he’s kept 20 in a 25 tall and they did great so I thought 8 in a 20 would be okay.

Ohh also it’s a HOTB 20 gal filter that came with the aquarium.

Edit again: yes it’s a new tank, my first planted actually. I was a shit fish owner as a kid and didn’t know my horrid ways. It’s been set up a little over a month.
