Aquarium Advice Newbie
Hello,
I'm Lucy, I'm from England and I own a 55 litre (15 gal) tank. I got my fish on Thursday (a male betta, 6 red cherry shrimp and 3 zebra snails) and was advised before I went that betta community tanks were pretty difficult because of bettas being aggressive. Here I am two days later and my peaceful betta has not pestered a single other thing in the tank (although that could change haha). So yes, I'm pretty glad that I'm getting into the aquarium hobby, it's extremely fun and I'm already attached to little pirate.
One thing that I wanted to ask was if I could get a school aswell? If not that's fine but the shrimp don't come out too often unless it's feeding time, I wanted the tank to look a bit more lively. I mean, there's loads of space for swimming too.
Thanks.
