Hey guys!
So my little Primrose has been cramped up in her (temporary) 1g for a while now, and I finally got her a 2.5g! It's plain, I just bought the actual tank itself, but I'm planning on getting the heater today.
I've got some questions! Lol
Is a 25W heater good for 2.5g?
I was wanting black sand as the substrate, but I'm not sure how to rinse it or how to put it in??
I don't have a hood for the tank, but I've never known Primrose to jump.... Is there a DIY hood, or one I could buy somewhere?
I was going to use live plants, starting with some Anarcharis Elodea clippings from my other tanks, and maybe some java moss.. And for hiding, I was going to do one of those flower pots (the name completely slipped my mind. Haha). Decorations are rocks from her old tank, her silk plant, and maybe some gravel EXTREMELY lightly sprinkled over the sand as accents.
I was maybe wanting to add a Nerite snail too...
Oh, I almost forgot, I was needing filter suggestions, as of right now, I'm thinking of the Tetra 1-3i filter from Walmart.
All suggestions and tips are welcome!! Thanks in advance!!!
