Thankyou. Yeah he even swims along the bottom on sand with them and he is happy as larry. Its actually the BN that will now and again give him a warning not to come near their wafers, as i said earlier my Betta will try and munch their food before his own haha. Piggy Betta.    Its good to know...

Yeah i think i may have to. Thankyou. Im so relieved as i thought disaster had struck with his original tank. Hes like a BN the fact that he will give anything edible a try. Haha. Not picky. He didnt even go in a grump with his move as i have had that with Bettas before.

Update They are gettig along great. My Betta is actually swimming with them. I actually think he wants to be a BN considering just recently he will eat the cucumber and wafers before acknowloging his own food. So im having to keep my eye on him and hope he doesnt over eat at all. Struggling...

Great thankyou everyone. Hes been fine all night and today. Just got the grumps and not wanting to eat today, but he should settle in and get into the routine soon.    :)

So hes in. Took an interest in the Bns and is now exploring as this tanks bigger than his original home.

Thanks, so frustrated right now. At least he will be able to chill in this tank. I keep a close eye on the water quality and im always testing it so i he will be safe and sound in there. Great thankyou. I think the moves going to happen then tonight as lights will be off anyway so theres no...

I keep mine on for around 12 hours. I have live plants (Cabomba and Hygrophilia). Flourish fert and no co2. Tropical community, betta and BN tanks all the same as above. Mine are under a window and in an alcove. I have no probs with my lights on that long. They have been up and running for a...

Ok thanks for telling ne your experience on them. This Betta has been with other fish before i got him. I have plenty of places for them to hide but my BNs are my favourites. But dont want to lose my Betta. When i have the built in filter running is peeng water everywere and blasting it round...

Hi so i have abit of a dilemma. The tank i had all ready and cycled for my Bettas arrival today had broken. I got my Betaa home and into the tank and then not an hour later the piping out let on the built has bust. Typical after all my work and patience to get it all ready. I have a tank...

Ok thankyou. Ill give it a miss then, rather feed them their main diet than experiment with frozen foods. Unless i have to for some odd reason haha.   :)

Ok, yeah i have a piece of bogwood in my tank what they seem to be pulling bits off and leaving it on the sand substrate haha. Also im stocked up on wafers and Cucumber so im all good on that prospective.   Would it benefit them or not to every now and again to have Bloodworm, Mysis, Daphnia or...

So quick question for you guys.    Basically ive just been given some young bristlenoses a couple of days ago. They have there own set up and got everything sorted for them. I know the basics of feeding for them and currently im giving them things like Algae Wafers and Veggies...

Yeah thats sounds great!    Ive just been to my lfs today and my new male will be coming in next tuesday.   :)

Yeah, i have learnt that too. But onwards and upwards for now. Im happy with hows its come. Its my first planted tank (all my others are all fake plants and decor) so its nothing magnificent but im just glad ive finally done it. Another of my goals ticked all in time for new year.   Im on my...

Hi, so maybe a couple of you may remember that a while ago i made a couple of threads in which on two i had plans for a planted tank and a tank to house a betta. Well i decided why not combine the two!  Now christmas has been and gone i am all sorted. It has been a while getting everything...
