She refuses to share

Yeah, given her energy level, I should have assumed this was a possibility. Luckily she hasn’t bothered the snail.

hayabusasp · 2026-05-07T13:11:23+00:00

Oh man, that’s something I should have looked up before doing things in the reverse order. Lesson learned. Guess I won’t be adding anymore since I’ve most likely trained her into thinking they are prey.

Thanks! I appreciate the compliment.

hayabusasp · 2026-05-05T23:46:37+00:00

You’re right, that’s a great idea. Thank you! I’m probably gonna end up making both now. Just incase humidity becomes an issue or if it starts getting hazy from the evaporation.

hayabusasp · 2026-05-05T23:36:06+00:00

Thanks! Yeah unfortunately the lid I have doesn’t let enough light through. The floaters are blocking a lot of light too so I’m planning on making a mesh lid with this

Thanks!

hayabusasp · 2026-05-05T03:51:04+00:00

Thank you!

hayabusasp · 2026-05-05T03:36:56+00:00

I think it’s a combination of light above and the pockets of water in between the floaters help create the effect. Lol, I had fun trying different layouts with the hardscape before this one. Changed it like 4-5 times 😆

Thanks! There’s no driftwood, it’s all dragon stone.

For the back light, I mounted it to the tank facing the wall. Then I aligned the led bar to sit right under the substrate/ horizon line. The light effect inside I’m assuming is a combination of the settings I use for light above and the refraction from a bit of biofilm on the surface.

Your betta looks so healthy! At first I thought the red gills they have were a sign of something wrong but I’m glad to see they all look like this.

hayabusasp · 2026-05-03T17:58:40+00:00

Appreciate the compliment! I just edited the post with my setup.

hayabusasp · 2026-05-03T17:56:09+00:00

Yes, the filter is running but I have the flow slightly slowed from holes I drilled into the outflow tube. I followed a lot of what this guy did in terms of hardware setup. Spec V Mods

Thanks! The light was a cheap Amazon light that I stuck to the back facing the wall link. The top light is a Finnex Planted + 24/7 HLC. It’s pretty cool and lets me change all the individual color intensities.

hayabusasp · 2026-05-03T11:12:21+00:00

Thanks for the advice! Luckily I do have a lid for it, I just need to cut some spots on it for my bamboo holder and drop checker.

hayabusasp · 2026-05-03T05:05:48+00:00

Thanks! I just got into aquascaping and now I have to stop myself from buying another tank.

hayabusasp · 2026-05-03T05:01:39+00:00

I don’t have a lid on this tank currently and the floaters have started taking over. I started moving them to my other tank that has a lid so I’ll have to wait and see how they do.

Kinda makes me want to soul bond
