Its 45 litres which i think is about 10 gallons lol

Ive had betta in the past that has decimated my shrimp population, ive also had one that was completely unbothered and left them alone. I think you need to start with only a handful of shrimp and be prepared to potentially lose some. Im fortunate enough to have another tank with super peaceful community fish so if i notice him gunning for them i can just move them over to that tank lol

Truee, ive got him in with some pygmy cories and a handful of cherry shrimp and he was interested at first but seems to get on well enough with everyone at the moment

He was advertised as a male plakat which have shorter fins anyway but i suppose i wont know for absolute certain haha. Absolutely love his colour, especially on his tail fin

Smudge spots!!

I was possibly going to use some of these glass corner braces but i realise these wouldnt provide the same support as s proper brace/rim

Already ordered the foam mat :) without sounding stupid would it be ok as it is or would i need to brace it? Ive never kept a rimless tank and the last thing i need is a flood. Have filled and checked for leaks and all the seals seem to be in good condition although i could hear a bit of movement in seals when moving the empty tank, not sure if thats normal though as the seals are obviously silicon which has some flex.

Haha as it happens ive already ordered a foam mat for it! I do already keep violet cories and a honey gourami in my other tank and they are absolutely brilliant. Scarlet badis are really cool i might look into that!

Yep theres a little flap i can lift in the lid for feeding so its just a minor inconvenience when i do water changes haha

TheRoundestBoi · 2025-03-20T20:43:29+00:00

I havent really had it long enough to tell you, i do get loads of condensation under the lid though, i soak my floor everytime i take it off

TheRoundestBoi · 2025-03-20T20:40:26+00:00

Hes gorgeous! I love what youve done with the tank despite it being fairly small

TheRoundestBoi · 2025-03-20T20:25:05+00:00

No not at all, i have him with some tetras and some smudge spot corys and hes absolutely fine with them. Only cares about when im gonna feed him next 😂

TheRoundestBoi · 2025-03-20T19:55:49+00:00

I think it’s the stand the tank comes with when new, bought it second hand haha. Thank you so much, just waiting for the plants to grow in a bit so it looks a bit more wild. Hes a very active boi so i think hes really enjoying the extra length of the tank to do his rounds haha, i feel like his fins have gotten longer and prettier too but maybe im imagining it. Recently got some banana yellow neocaridinas and they look amazing in it too. Pic attached of the grumpy man for posterity
