Hey all,
This is my first post. I'm not much for introductions.
I just bought my first tank, its a 5 gallon, easy set up Walmart tank. Probably not the best way to start, but I'm simply not sure if this is a hobby I'll enjoy.
That being said, I've set it up complete with light, filter, gravel, and spongebob characters. (Go figure) I understand that smaller tanks can be harder to work with, but I'm low on space and I consider myself to be a studious person, so I think it'll be alright. Now that the preliminaries are out of the way, here are my questions.
Would it be a bad idea to plant a carpet style plant in my tank? How will this affect the fish?
Right now I'm looking at getting one loner fish, (betta? Guppy?) Some shrimp, and a couple African dwarf frogs. How compatible would these be? From what I've read it should work. But I wanted some opinions from more experienced people. Thanks!
