I think it will be fine. Bettas have a labyrinth gill so they can breathe air. You'd be surprised how long bettas can last outside water. Obviously it stresses them to high heavens, but with the Melafix and fresh treated water I think it will survive. Fingers crossed!

No i told jamie to go about halfway which most of that piece is hollow anyway but my thinking was halfway through would mean added apartments so to speak..lol that way once they start reproducing ill have space to add more hidey holes..

Water change on the 36g bowfront and deep cleaned the filters. Its blood worm day!!!

 

[Fishlover3578]

The cory cats all found each other and are staying together lol so cute cuz the one is almost twice the other 2 size

 

[Autumnsky]

Found my 37G tank was a little cloudy and then realized my intake tube was bumped and my AC110 was barely trickling. Adjusted things around and now it is kickin full blast. Will do a pwc also to help clean it up.

 

[molliwopp]

Did a nice water change today of around 30% going to make it my new pwc percentage.

I've been without Internet for a few days so I haven't been on here, but yesterday I started resealing my 20 long. I still have a ways to go but I got the old silicone out. I'm waiting for my finger to heal before I clean the residue out and reseal it. I didn't have any holder for the razor blade I used and the end of it sliced my index finger a bit and made a massive blister... Which was immediately broken by the 20 or so cuts made by the not sharp end of the blade. I also nicked every nail on my right hand a few times. Next time I reseal I am wearing gloves!
