My Koi Betta is turning white and blue :) I don't see any orange coming in. Gave him new substrate and a log today.

Is it beyond time where some filter media from an established tank would help? I cycled my brand new tank and filter over Xmas fishless, with Prime and media from a friend’s tank. It’s holding steady now with 6 Cory and 6 Tetra.

Decided on the following, and ordered in on a group buy to save shipping. 10 Koi Angelfish 2" now 10 Pristella Tetra 10 Bronze Cory juvelines 2 Nannacara Acara juveniles 1 Apple snail Will see how things go as they grow up.

Thanks. I just decided to add 4 more Pristellas to make a school of 10. I like them, they are active and interesting. Also adding 4 more bronze Corys. Should have mentioned that I have an apple snail in there too.

My plan so far: 6 Bronze Corydora 6 Pristella Tetra 3-5 Juvenile Angelfish 2 Golden Dwarf Cichlid with their own territory arranged with pots and rocks Too many? Water is great, been cycling for over a month with Prime and ghost feeding. Fluval in-tank filter with additional sponge/airline...

Very cute. I'm new to seeing juvenile Bettas. Will their fins/tail grow out more?

He was home bred. My friend raises them. :)

Imgr link to a tiny video of my new guy. Just got him today and he is about 6 months old. https://imgur.com/G5q6aFP

It's 24" high and 48" long.

Thanks a lot, do you have pictures of your set-up? My secondary goal is to clearly see the fish when I get them :) ~Kelly

Hello, I am hoping to get lights for my aquarium that will be strong enough for my plants. I don't mind scrapping the two canopies that I have now, as the tube lights don't seem to be generating enough light to penetrate the water, tannins and all. Any suggestions where I should start...

I have a baby koi coloured Betta on hold, until my 10g tank finishes cycling. It's very exciting as I had never known they existed. His fins haven't come in yet, so it will be really neat to see his pattern develop. I have a dark blue substrate, I think he'll really pop against it.

What is this one’s name? Purple guy.. he’s stunning

I wanted to edit my original post, but it won't let me. I want to change the picture size as that one is silly big.

Nannacara Anomala. He uses terracotta pots for houses, and I plan to get a good number of them for territory/hiding spots. 7.2 pH after sitting for 5 days 36 hours after adding bacteria from friend's tank, and ghost feeding flakes ( I need to run to the store for ammonia, just been busy)...
