Haha! XD I saw 3 beautiful little betta girls at my fish store today, one red, one blue and one pink! It would be nice if I could tell my fish apartBut with fish like neon tetras I dont mind so much since they look nice swimming in a group!
If I had the 3 betta girls for example how many other fish could I add roughly?
If you had the 3 girls I'd say you'd be stocked, but you may wanna read up on betta sororities first
I forgot you won't have a lid!
Ermmm, without a lid it's really risky keeping a betta as they are known to jump to different pools of water in the wild, so you may find a betta on your floor one day :c
Bottom dwelling fish may be the best bet for that tank now.
I'm not sure but Pygmy corys stay rather small and seeing as how you have a long tank, the larger footprint will benefit them
no girly bettas for me. Hm I think over the next few visits to the pet store (I practically live there) I will make a little list of the fish I like and then I can ask if they would be suitable
Ha if one jumped out I think my puppy or cats would have it before I could get to the little girl! Mango has an open top tank and he has never jumped do you think he would still be ok in there?
Aww
Aww thanks so much! It was so funny, but I take it those are for salt water tanks!
By the way, for the cycling process I haven't been able to find pure ammonia anywhere.. and i brought a master test kit but then i found out my pet store test your water for free and tell you what to do so I think I might take it back.. but they suggested today putting in a packet of gel.. i cant find it on their site so im not 100% what it was called.. but they said if I put that in it would help establish the tank faster.. they also suggested this and said they use it on their tanks NUTRAFIN CYCLE 120ML [A7900] - £7.49 : Petstop Pet Shop, Online pet store providing expert advice (although their tanks have been up and running for 6 months so I'm a bit sceptical about whether it would work)
Hmm okay, I'll get on that list soon then
I use Jeyes Kleen Off
It worked great for me and my local DIY store stocked it ^_^
It's best to keep your test so you can test it if there's ever a death or and emergency outside of store opening hours
As for the products that cycle a tank quicker, they're kinda hit and miss, best best is to get some media from an established filter

Was expecting this to cost around £30-£40 max when I started... its cost so much more T_T
Ordered some
and then 2 little cloud minnows in his tank. Or keep him in there if he seems happy still by the time the new tank is ready. Be nice to see him in more space though
I know its crazy how pricey everything is! I measured up the filter I brought earlier.. its going to take up the entire side of my tank XD Should keep it super clean though! If all this fails I might actually cry
