Aquarium Advice Apprentice
So, I am fairly new to having an aquarium. As of right now I have a 10 gallon with 1 Mickey Mouse Platy, 1 White Skirt Tetra and 1 Ghost Shrimp. I was thinking of moving up to maybe a 29-30 gallon. I just have a question about some things:
First of all, if I get maybe a couple pairs of the same fish, different gender, and they get it on and make fry, and don't eat their fry, will my tank be overpopulated? I was thinking of maybe letting them run the tank naturally and how they do it in nature, maybe separating a few fry to have some left over if they do start eating them. Will this work out? Wonder if I get some plants to make them feel more at home? Will the plants make my tank dirty? I love fish, and would love to get more involved then just a 10 gallon tank with fake plants lol Any help would be greatly appreciated
