I was thinking bout a Betta or a few glofish but I know most will freak out about the glofish!! Haha the globe makes everything look huge so that's going to be interesting

 

[Flossie]

I'm pretty sure it'll be a betta

 

[xxwolfpackof1xx]

glofish are zebra dainos and need at least a 20g for swimming space do you know the gallon mesuements? i think a betta and ottos are cool and maybe a betta and neon tetras?

Oh don't be all 20 gallons... Bla bla hahahaha just kidding... I'm pretty sure it'll be a Betta. I thought about just letting him have it all to Himself...u think I need to add tankmates ??

[xxwolfpackof1xx]

Um idk cause I think a plant or something make take away the gumball feel... I'm not sure... Plus the filter kinda takes up some space

 

[xxwolfpackof1xx]

true sometimes less is more

I guess well just see what happens

 

[Flossie]

Trying to figure out what to do with the heater ... I wanted more gum looking marbles but my dad had these and they were free

 

[xxwolfpackof1xx]

stick heater behind the filter?

 

[kaiofcanada]

awesome thread!

You know...if you don't get a betta you should consider the flame red cherry shrimp or one of the bright shrimp varieties and some neon tetras. I cant wait to see it all finished.

I also really like that the base lights up. Very nice effect.
