Please help!

How big is your main tank and what is in it?

 

[TLfreshhhhwater]

30 gallons , silver dollar, hatchet fish 2 black skirt tetra and a Bala shark, 4 guppies

 

[Tommy10]

Wait until they are large enough not to fit in any of those fish mouths

 

[TLfreshhhhwater]

Do they look big enough there two months old

 

[NYgiantsRP]

How big are the silver dollrs and bala shark?

FIY...silver dollars and bala sharks dont belong in a 30g tank. 150g MINIMUM for the bala, and 55 for the silver dollars.

 

[TLfreshhhhwater]

There small I'll move them when they get too big

 

[TLfreshhhhwater]

Both only 1-2 inches

 

[NYgiantsRP]

oh, then those guppies should be fine. As long as they are 1/2" long.

 

[TLfreshhhhwater]

Do you have any suggestions for a 5.5 gallon nano tank?

 

[NYgiantsRP]

A betta, and maybe a couple amano shrimp. Or a school of CPDs and a scarlet badis.

 

[TLfreshhhhwater]

Would you recommend african dwarf frogs?

 

[Tommy10]

Shrimp and Betta

 

[NYgiantsRP]

Eh, I have never been able to keep them. They either die soon after getting them, or jump out of the tank and die.

 

[TLfreshhhhwater]

That's my experience with bettas they always seem to be sick even before bought

 

[NYgiantsRP]

Betta are supper tough and resilient, as long as you get them decent water and feed them once a week they will thrive.

 

[TLfreshhhhwater]

I can keep discus fish which aren't hardy at all but I have trouble with bettas...they seem to be sick at the store as well

 

[NYgiantsRP]

They may not look great at the store, but like I said earlier, a little TLC brings them back quickly.
