Hello All!
I want to set up a nice, yet not overly expensive freshwater aquarium. I have always liked Bettas and other colorful fish. That being said I have only just had a male betta in a single fish bowl basically. I would like to advance. Again, that being said, I feel like any animal alone will get lonely. I need advice from the ground up. I know I want a “big” colorful betta. What other fish do well with bettas? What kind of “landscape” does my tank need? How big should the tank be? Water temp, filtration, lighting etc? Again I like colorful fish. I don’t want them fighting or hurting each other. Fish species suggestions (as long as they’re colorful, “cleaner” species/animals wanted too, please no frogs or turtles), equipment and upkeep, placement in the home, environmental suggestions will be more than welcome. I am a dog person, have always had them. Again, that being said I just took a new job in a new town. The house I am renting doesn’t allow dogs. 3 bed/2 bath. Moderate windows. Located in south east US. And again, I just moved, I can’t break the bank; but I need some kind of animal/animals in my home. I had to leave my dog with my folks back home but I need animals in my life, especially being in a new place, and I like fish. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance!
Have a great day!
