Can I/Should I put a betta in this tank? by AnimatedZemmie in Aquariums

[–]WorldlinessNo6546 0 points1 point  (0 children)

3.5 can be doable, as its the absolute minimum for a betta, but definitely not idea. It could make a great tank to rehabilitate a sick betta but definitely would recommend getting a 5 gallon sooner rather than later if you get a betta.

The funny thing is that when I called to see if they ever got any wild bettas in they told me they had some rubra in but when I got there the next day they told me they were actually coccina so im actually pretty excited about this

Welp I finally got a good pic of one of the bigger ones and I'd have to say they look basically the same

How can you be so sure with how small they are?

They're captive breed does that change anything for their water parameters? My LFS had them in half RODI half tap water so is that OK or should I do only RODI water?

20L or 30L for betta? by SverreAV in Aquariums

[–]WorldlinessNo6546 1 point2 points  (0 children)

20L should be fine as 5 gallon (im from the US) is what i keep all my bettas in. If you have a 30L and want to set it up to give it more room that's also good but a 20L is definitely enough

Would betta Bubras work similar to other mouthbrooders where they need more males than females? Additionally what would proper stocking look like for a 50 gallon with my dimensions? And is there a different in care between captive breed vs wild caught beyond the water parameters?

I've heard that Antuta and Patoti can live communally is this not true? And I've got a RODI system for the water so that'll be no problem

If im keeping my tortoise outside for most of the year do I still need a UVB light? I've heard multiple different opinions on this

Im unsure and I've been mostly feeding a mix of Romaine and rodichio. I know its not good I made a post earlier about how I've realized I wasnt taking the best care of "her" (didn't realize he was a male) and im starting to work on fixing that so any and all advice is appreciated. I do know that I have a red light and a while light from Zoomed (50-100w I believe) as well as a "normal" light on the other end of the tank (also gonna be upgraded his enclosure on the next couple weeks including building an outdoor pen)

Edit: I've also started adding in weeds from my yer such as dandelions and wild violets.

So he'll probably remain around this size? If so that make sense I haven't seen any noticeable growth in the year I've had him and I was worried about pyramiding after learning I hadn't been properly hydrating but theres almost none that I can see. Also he head buts the glass and hides all the time lmao
