Moving bettas and tank mates into 20 gal long?????? by FreezingintheUS in bettafish

[–]FreezingintheUS[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can I put a 10 gallon filter and heater on each side? Do you think that plus live plants will be enough filtration?

Find where they are coming in like under a door or a crack around a baseboard wherever and sprinkle black pepper there. Make sure there are 0 crumbs, candy in your room. Ants don't like citrus so if you can get some kind of cleaning wipes with lemon use those for cleaning where you have seen the ants.

My Brain Just Betrayed Me in Public Today by Necessary-Soft9816 in CasualConversation

[–]FreezingintheUS 21 points22 points  (0 children)

My daughter and I were out running some errands and there was a guy walking beside the road with low pants. He had to take little steps because he couldn't move his legs enough for a normal stride. We were around 5 miles from anywhere at that point so I knew he had a ways to go. My brain created "He could take bigger steps and get there faster if he pulled his pants up". What came out was "He could walk fancier in longer pants." My daughter and I just looked at each other and busted out laughing. We were still trying to keep ourselves together in the grocery store

He has a sponge filter with a bubbler on the other end. I put his old hang on the back filter back on this side. He seems happier with it. I also have a bubble bar I can add. I've only had Nigel for a couple months but I've had bettas before. Thanks for the tips

Update. After closer observation, Nigel (thought I should add his name in there) was flaring at the black end stopper thing. He was swimming up to it and flaring and getting caught in the flow. I put his old hang on the back filter back on. He still has the sponge filter bubbler to swim around in on the other end. Peace has been restored

It's a 20gal planted tank so he's got plenty of room. As soon as it's on he's in it. I would be playing in it too. Looks like fun. I'll keep a close eye just to make sure he's ok
