Chasing chemical deliveries for a waste to energy plant , wish i wasn't though :/

Yes i do similar, I try to focus on space to swim, i do have rocks and little caves etc., but i like my tank to be split into different areas that give the fish the chance to swim different routes and explore, when i look at some of these pro aqua scapers the hard scape is so big the fish have...

Do you deduct the amount of aqua scaping materials that go in to work out your fish stocking levels ?, Just curious as i watched a few aqua scaping videos online recently where i would say a large percentage of the space was taken up by huge rocks and hard scape, plus the idea of sloping the...

I watched my Betta for about an hour this morning, he was in every area of the tank, swam the length of the tank several times, behind the heater, around the filter, he even poked his nose in the pleccy cave and came out again.

Thats unbelievable, i take it those are for export to other countries ?

There is definitely this perception that Betta's can live in very small spaces, and don't need any much care other than some flake dropped in, sort of similar to they way some keep goldfish, very sad.

Would an option be to just leave the eggs and see if they hatch in the tank ? would you need caves etc for that ?

Well done, great looking Betta 👍

I think so yes there was a group of about 3 or 4 males endlers that chased and hassled it the whole time, must have been stressful for the guppy so that's why I ported him in along with the betta, thankfully the betta pays no attention to the guppies, 60 litre as well so plenty of space.

I put a black molly in with the betta a few days back and it immediately started Gill flaring then spent the whole time chasing and nipping at the molly, so I removed the molly to another tank with the endler females.

It's just a case of getting the stocking right, the betta is in with , one albino Cory female, one bronze Cory male, two male guppies and one bristle nose pleccy gender unknown, all seems very peaceful with the fish going about thier business and not harrasing others. Any issues with what I...

Thanks, I actually moved it into a different tank as I didn't want anymore breeding, he's in the 60L with Betta and another guppy that is definetly male but that fish doesn't bother it.

I think this is a female guppy, initially thought it was male then noticed it getting chased a lot by male endlers.
