  1. Hi. I'm not sure where to ask this question. I think I'm at the right place. If I had a specific question for someone at aquarium co-op, would I ask it here? Or would I need to go to a different place? I live close to an hour away and don't really want to drive all the way there to ask. I'm trying to put together a beautiful 29 gallon community tank and want a game plan before going up there.
  2. I don't want colors to clash, and we don't want the fish to be more gorgeous than Dart.
  3. Thank you @Jollypop4321 and @RovingGinger Can guppies manage the higher temperatures with a betta? I was thinking rice fish maybe? The only thing left would be chili rasboras or CPD, but my roommate doesn't think the red or orange will go with the colors we have.
  4. I have a dumbo betta in an 8 gallon. My roommate and I want a Nano fish that isn’t better looking than our betta, and will not clash with the colors in the tank. Here is the picture of the tank. Please help. Also, because the tank has a filter that is at the bottom under water, I am not allowed to use sand. I have rough rocks, designed to have a lot of surface area for bacteria, at the bottom. I have smooth river rock as a layer on top to protect my betta’s fins. I know I can’t have corys, but is there another nano bottom dweller I could get, or only snails? Again, if I can only get mid water nano fish then That’s what I’m looking for. Thanks, -Eden
  5. This happened late last night and early this morning. I went to the store with a friend, got the fish I needed to finish off my 40 gallon breeder, and I received all the plants that I bought on the website. I put the fish in, and helped a friend with her new fish tank. She is new to the hobby, and I am teaching her how to get through the rookie mistakes. The fish were stressed from the car ride, but they all look good right now. They ate and are zooming around. I tested my water, and am watching all the fish carefully. The planter from aquarium co-op are fantastic! The plants came in looking better than I could have dreamed. it's amazing, and I will post a picture later when I have the time! Thanks guys!!
  6. Thanks to everyone who helped me get the fish for my tank and those who helped trouble shoot questions. 🙂
  7. @Nataku Thank you so much. I went to the store yesterday and the plants came too. I might need to do some arranging because I'm not sure I like where I have the planters. I might just keep one and take the other out. Otherwise the fish look amazing.
  8. That’s Amazing! I love that tank!! Thank you @Paul
  9. @Ruud No 😭 He keeps hiding and I can’t get him to stay out long enough for a picture. This is the only other picture I could get.
  10. This is my pleco Tony. Would someone help me find out if he is male or female?
  11. @Nataku This is Tony. My 1st tiger pleco I've had him for 4 months. I can’t sex him. Can you?
  12. @Nataku That was amazing advice!!! Thank you so much!! I will be taking all of that advice. I also appreciate everyone else that gave great advice!! I do have water lettuce now, and yes, The betta will be in there until January. He will go in a smaller tank that the students will help me put together. Ill teach them how to cycle it and take care of it. Then he will go home with a lucky student at the end of the year. My fourth grade winner last year got Casper the platinum crown tail. He was bright white with black eyes. It's been a way for me to keep the fish hobby alive! 😊
  13. @Daniel I totally agree with you! But.... I can't put an angel with a betta. They would not accept each other 😂🤣 I was thinking my new fancy Pleco would do that. And maybe some kuli loaches. (Probably spelled that wrong. Sorry. ) @Ken Burke I don't know if I'll be able to contain myself when I get to the store, but I'll make my list shorter on purpose. 😊 Thank you all so much. - Eden.
  14. @Daniel I've had my tank for over 6 months now and has balanced out. I have: 1 betta 2 tiger plecos 1 long fin bristlenose (I asked the works at aquarium co-op first before adding my favorite fish, the plecos, to my tank and they gave the ok. I just wanted one or two more but don't know how many is too many, but I was told one more would be fine.) 6 rummy nose 12 cardinals 6 stirbai corys 8 rasboras And 4 snails This tank had been amazing so far and I just wanted to know how many was too many. It still looks slightly empty. Does this help? I love the list that was given @James Black. Thank you! - Eden Ps. This picture is an older picture. It's now planted, has 4 caves, and is getting more plants very soon. Maybe today. I'm super excited. 🙂
  15. Hi. I'm planning on going to aquarium co-op after work today to surprise my 4th graders Monday. I have a 40 breeder classroom tank, and wanted to add to it. I asked this question on one of my other posts, but it didn't match the topic so I'm afraid that it'll get missed before I go to the store. I have a list of fish I want to add to the tank and was wondering how many would be too many to ask for. I already figured out what I can or can't add with the fish I already keep and now it's time to solidify my list. Wish list: 1 or 2 more fancy plecos 6 inches or under. Or another long fin bristlenose. I have stirbai corys x6, but wondered if I could add the albino ones or maybe pandas. If not I might just add 3 more to their group and call it good. Kuli loaches 4 more rasboras 4 more rummy nose And 4 more cardinals Thinking of a fun snail too. I had been wanting to get hatchet fish for the top, but was told I shouldn't because they jump too much. I do have a heavy duty lid so I'm up for another opinion or two. I have live bacteria to add to my tank with my new fish, and I just got new plants! I'm waiting for them to arrive!!! Help me solidify my list so I can help Robert tomorrow. He's asked to have a list ready. I was there for probably 45 minutes the last 2x before because I had so many questions. I felt really bad but it was my first big tank and didn't want to mess up. Thanks for your help. - Eden.
