straick said:I have a betta(Barry) in a 10 gallon with some live plants, and he loves them. I've heard to only use the silk variety of fake plants with bettas so that they don't get their fins hurt from the hard plastic.
Looks nice.
For the nitrate test, you HAVE to shake the test for the full minute, as well as the container of solution #2. I've made the mistake of not, and it WILL give weird and inaccurate results if you don't shake them enough.
