It's 24"long 12"wide (front to back) and 12"high.
Yeah, IME that combo works fine. They are pretty tiny fish and really fun to watch. That tank has good horizontal swimming room, so you should be fine. I have 6 in my 10g, and they do great. I will probably add a few more when my baby silver tip tetras who live with them are big enough to go into my bigger community.Really? That's great news!
i was worried that the embers wouldn't have enough swimming space or that they'd get eaten by the Betta because they're so tiny. :3 great to hear someone else who has tried it successfully
Oh good o! Does any one know any brands of sand in the UK that are 'Cory safe'? I heard Tahitian Black Moon Sand will damage their barbels? Do i prewash the sand (a LOT from what I've read) and swap it with all the gravel in one go?
I cannot answer for the UK, but I know that normal small gravel is fine. I, and many others on here, keep corys with this sort of gravel and its fine. I have never had a barbel injury or a belly scratch on any of them.Bump... :3
Play sand won't have dyes or anything in it. It has to be safe for a sandbox for babies out it in their mouths, so it will be safe for fish.Thank you for that. I'm pretty sure of a place that will sell play sand. Are you sure it will be okay? Won't it have dyes or something in it that might poison the fish? Is there any label or logo saying it's safe?
