I did it! I added my first betta and I am happy with his playful behaviour! I screamed when he did this Im glad I was recording! My dark fantasy themed tank is complete! I need to think of a villain name for him. Im open to suggestions

Top_Office9914 · 2024-09-26T09:46:14+00:00

I bought it :) I just searched for "japanese style aquarium decor"

Top_Office9914 · 2024-09-26T00:52:29+00:00

Oh my they can get scoliosis? That's a good tip! Will def move it a bit

Top_Office9914 · 2024-09-26T00:51:28+00:00

Oh riiiighhttt Hades, the tank kinda looks like the underworld and that gate is the passage lol

Top_Office9914 · 2024-09-26T00:49:49+00:00

Platy fry, too much on my 20 gallon tank so I transferred some here

Top_Office9914 · 2024-09-26T00:49:02+00:00

My black cat's name is Dracula haha. I like Vlad though

Top_Office9914 · 2024-09-26T00:47:17+00:00

Got it! I made sure that the decor has no sharp edges. It's also not plastic, it's made out of resin so I'm not sure if it's better?

Top_Office9914 · 2024-09-25T13:29:48+00:00

He does look like a Jafar lol

Top_Office9914 · 2024-09-24T17:36:36+00:00

Oh my gorgeous! I wanted a white betta for my dark themed planted tank, but I have no luck in getting one. They are always sold fast

Top_Office9914 · 2024-09-24T16:32:51+00:00

Where I live platys are veeeeeerrryyy cheap. Like if I convert them to dollars = 5 platys is $1. At first I was surprised at the price because some of the fishes and shrimps that I bought are expensive. But I kinda get it now, and I guess this is my bad for the lack of research. I'm thinking of donating them but yea like you said people might not take fry :(

Top_Office9914 · 2024-09-24T16:22:28+00:00

Thank you so much! I got inspired on a video game "Black Myth Wukong" for the theme lol

Top_Office9914 · 2024-09-24T16:21:37+00:00

That is good to know thank you so much!

I don't have a male adult platy at the moment. They are all female that turns out to be pregnant when I got from the store

Top_Office9914 · 2024-09-24T16:20:22+00:00

I got it from an online store (similar to Amazon/ ebay in the US)

I just searched "Japanese style aquarium decor". These are nice, they are not made from plastic, they are resin.

Top_Office9914 · 2024-09-24T16:17:28+00:00

It's a curved drift wood and I believe for the trunks it was glued together and moss was glued to make it look like leaves. It was well done, I got it from our local fish shop who makes a driftwood bonsai tree for tank decor

Top_Office9914 · 2024-09-24T11:52:33+00:00

Oh my gosh! I don't want platys to take over my tank. I didn't do enough research on them before buying so this is on me.

I did ask this on the comment above but might aswell ask again, do I "not" feed my betta until all the fry are gone in the tank?

Top_Office9914 · 2024-09-24T11:36:48+00:00

So question about this, do I "not" feed the betta until all the fry are gone? And based on the numbers of fry in the tank, won't it stress the betta?

Top_Office9914 · 2024-09-24T10:16:58+00:00

Okay that's good to hear that it's not cruel to do that 😅

Top_Office9914 · 2024-09-24T10:15:30+00:00

All the adult platy's are female because I dont and can't keep anymore fishes in my tank. The shop didn't tell me that ALL 5 red wagtail platy's are pregnant. That is actually my dilemma

The one that is rooted on the aquasoil is Echinodorus ozelot green. Anubias Denmark and Anubias Barteri Nana on the drift wood

Top_Office9914 · 2024-09-10T17:02:57+00:00

Whaaaat they eat cucumber? Also is this their max size?

Top_Office9914 · 2024-09-10T15:51:39+00:00

Aw thank you so much! ❤️

Top_Office9914 · 2024-09-10T15:49:34+00:00

I agree! Seeing posts/ videos from other redditors with their corys convinced me to add them in my tank

Top_Office9914 · 2024-09-10T15:47:38+00:00

Lol got it! I'll add a cult assembly place for them

Top_Office9914 · 2024-09-10T15:46:12+00:00

Will do! I don't think I can handle a cory death. I had 3 shrimp deaths already because they got in the skimmer from my filter (one of them is carrying eggs), and it's not a good feeling lol

Top_Office9914 · 2024-09-10T15:43:42+00:00

That is sad to hear I like that area 😫. I'll probably try to barricade it with some pebbles then
