If you do ever end up getting Panda Garra just know that they aren't shy fish either 🙂

Last time I went to put plants into my tank and rearrange some things they swam around my hand a bunch and started to perch and suck on my hand as well. I wont lie....it tickled a lot and was surprising but it was fun.

Haha, cute (and funny) 😅! I would love to get them at least sometime in my life. They seem like cool fish. It's also a plus for me that they aren't shy, I especially love fish who are enjoyable and aren't skittish.

They shouldn't melt from a blackout. Growth will stop and some red plants may lose some color but everything should bounce right back when lights and ferts come back

Ok, Thank you. I will try the blackout. 🤞

I think it really depends on the betta. A good test is to buy a cheap cherry shrimp and make sure the betta isn't a shrimp eater before investing in a bunch of cherry shrimp. All though I would be surprised if she didn't eat the shrimp babies.

I use all three for most tanks.love them tks
