Dreams of my 29g

[ocminpin]

I have several thoughts and ideas with my 29g...

Current inhabitants are:

1 Dalmatian Adult Female (Cruella)
1 Silver Lyretail Adult Female (Charger)
2 Dalmatian Juvie Females: 1.5" & 2" (Angel & Dixie)
1 Black Molly Adult Male (Blaze)
1 Betta Female (Lucy)
1 Oto

So, 5 Mollies, a betta & an oto

I do a 50-75% PWC/ wk and parameters are:

8.2, 0, 0, 10

I'm branching out from plastic plants to live plants, have some live plants and other bulbs growing in subatrate.
Everyone gets along well and the betta is well acclimated after approximately 3 mths.
Everyone eats a mix of Omega One: Super Color Flakes & Veggie Flakes every other day, and Bloodworms once a week.

I have a separate nursery tank as well as a grow out take for older fry/juvies.

I'm going to be checking out floating plants for next week...

Any other suggestions? I know I want to change out the substrate to a larger rock/shell combo I have in another tank. Makes tank look brighter.

Comments and suggestions are welcomed! Thank you!

Why don't you get a male lyre tail

I just got my one Black Molly male a week ago... I only want one male for the tank. Too small of a tank for two males fighting over the girls...
