Post your tank here Here's my 20 gallon long planted tank.

I've had three of these plants in my tanks for two months and they still look healthy and just like I bought them.

My tank is usually between 76° and 80° but most times it averages 78° and they all seem to be okay. Elliott is my new betta and before I let him loose in the tank, I floated him in his cup that he came in from the store. I gradually acclimated the water, adding a little at a time longer than...

I have my Betta in a 20 gallon tank with 5 rasbora, 10 neons, and 3 corys with no problems at all. :) it depends on the personality of the betta. Just keep a watchful eye on them. Welcome to the forum by the way!

Thanks! I actually cheated :lol: it's a fake I got at petsmart. The driftwood is plastic too, I just striped off the fake plants. :oops:

This is only my second planted tank. I'm a newbie too :lol: I just liked the look. We'll see how hard it is to keep clean. I hope it's not too bad!

Thank you! He seems to be very happy!! :)

Here's my second attempt at planted tanks for my bettas. This one is a 10g for Frankie :)

Yep! That's it! I just took off the plastic plants. :D

Awesome ideas!! Thanks all!!:wave: A cooling off tank might not be such a bad idea when they're all acting like hooligans!!:lol:

Hi all, We're really in a hot spell right now and we have no air conditioning. What's a safe way to lower the temp in a 20g tank besides pwc? :thanks:

Thanks! It's a 20g long. I just got that plant from PetSmart, can't remember what it was called, but I will keep an eye on it, thanks! The rest are java ferns and moss and mostly low-light plants I got from Aquatic Arts. I'll make a list of everything I used when I get a second. :)

Thank you!! :lol: no, it's a "twinkle star" moss I bought on Amazon. It was dead looking when i got it, but I'm trying to give it a chance. Not much progress though, and Amazon offered to refund my money if I send it back. I have until the end of this month to send it back, so I'll hang in...

Hi all! Trying to start cycling my 20 gallon planted tank. Can mystery snails, before snails and mts be in the tank while cycling? I don't want anything to happen to them and I do have a 3 gallon tank I could use for them. Thanks!:)

Hi! I'm new here, but from your pics, it looks like your betta is happy and building bubble nests! Mine fills the whole top of his 3 gallon tank sometimes. :lol:

Gorgeous Bettas!! I love Bettas! My Betta's name is Frankie and he keeps changing color. He was almost completely black when I got him 2 years ago and now he's a beautiful turquoise and red. They're wonderful fish and companions!:fish1:

Wow!! Beautiful tank! Nice job!!:thumb: I'm so jealous!

Thank you!! I'll try the bleach first, as I already have it on hand!

Hey guys! I'm starting to get my 20 gallon fresh water tank going. I can't find any threads about how to sterilize plants before planting them in the tank. Any suggestions are so appreciated!:thanks:
