8g Planted Betta Tank

[Miss Wiggle]

well only managed to get 1 pic that turned out alright, but i'll share it with you anyway!

this is my little 8g planted ish tank, binky the SD simaese fighter fish is the only occupant, excuse his torn tail, did it a while back, it's healing... just slowly!

just pruned the creeping jenny (on the left) a few days ago, normally it's taller and hides the filter more.

and i keep saying this, but i will put a sodding black background on there one day!

he seems it, i'd challenge anyone who thinks keeping bettas in 1/2 a gallon bowls to come and see him for a bit and tell me that isn't better!! And it's not like an 8g tank takes up a hell of a lot of room, it's on my bedside table!

Happy Betta and nice tank there Miss Wiggle

Good luck with the black background, hope it's not reflective. The one I tried was almost like a mirror when applied, you can guess how Rocket reacted Needless to say I had to change the background again. Currently using some plain white paper, not ideal but beter than seeing the curtains behind the tank.

we tend to use hardboard painted black, it's a nice matt finish so doesn't reflect like some of them can

The Betta stands out nicely.

I like it, I think your wood is well placed also.
