    Betta diet of mostly ghost shrimp

    It shouldnt be the bulk of his diet but it shouldnt be problematic. As long as you keep feeding him a balanced pellet source and varied other foods, he should be fine.

    API master expiry

    It will not give you as accurate readings. The expiry date is usually a good indicator of when the chemicals inside the bottles might lose their properties, form new compounds and/or simply dissolve in the air or something else.

    *decorating* an oscar tank

    Highly doubt it had anything to do with aggression, mostly that if the oscar is hungry, itll just swallow whole anything that fits.

    Should I change water during cycling?

    I will add that water changes are not necessary in fishless cycles, but will help if youre trying to keep your ammonia in line.

    Should I change water during cycling?

    Definitely do small water changes if this is a fishless aquarium cycle. Ive found that the sweet spot is about 2-3ppm of ammonia for the fastest and most efficient cycle. Also, this will allow proper oxygenation for the bacteria to thrive as well. Nothing too drastic, 10% should suffice.

    Stocking 120G tank

    Ill check this combo out, I've never tried more then 5 fish in the same tank but I'm willing to research it, thanks! Breeding pairs of convicts get pretty aggressive and tear things to bits. Jack dempsey's do seem interesting though, I did have one but he was bullying my oscar so I gave it back...

    Stocking 120G tank

    I'd be interested in putting a single or maybe 2 or 3 bigger sided fish but I don't feel a single oscar in a 120 would really fill it. Maybe a good pair of oscars in a 120 or some other nice predator fish.

    Going on vacation please help

    As said, worry more about your parameters than about the feeding, they'll be fine.
