So I am upgrading from my 15 gallon tank to a 30 gallon tank mainly to move my angel fish to support their future size in a few weeks and I have a ton of questions. This will be a fresh water heated tank.
My PH is 7.5 soft water
1. first and most important question is how I'd go about doing a fishless cycle. I've never actually done one before because I've always got my tanks from friends when they didn't want them anymore
2. what substrate would work best with angel fish and plants
3. what plants are easy to maintain. I'm looking at having a jungle kind of look with some colour, driftwood and branches
4. Would I be able to move my betta into the tank with the angel fish or would the angel fish become too nippy and aggressive as they got older and bigger.
5. I was also thinking of getting a clown pleco as they're timid and don't have a huge growth like other plecos and wondering on opinions if this is a good idea.
6. is there any other fish that would be suited for the tank I am thinking of or anything that I have forgotten
Thanks for any answers and really appreciate it.
