You're knocking on the door now. It won't be long at all, it happens fast. Keep a super sharp eye on the pH level and if it starts to drop, do an emergency 50% pwc. Last thing we want is the pH dropping out on you. The pwc's you've been doing should prevent if, but better safe than sorry. Good job man, you'll have fish before you know it.

Oo nice! Im thinking of adding either diagnose or tetra to my 10g betta tank. Haha haven't/can't decide.

As for shrimp. They prefer planted tank. I'm not sure if anyone on AA tried them in an unplanted tank! But I guess it's possible.

 

[MattJ]

I'm not fussed by shrimp either way .. they were mentioned that I could maybe add them but if they prefer planted tank then I will happily leave them out - makes no difference to me -they were only a maybe anyway!

 

[MattJ]

Still no change 24 hours on
