Okay so my sister fell in love with my little white boy I bought from walmart (Pegasus) and her birthday is coming up next week so I told her she could have him. So we all rushed out to petsmart and looked for aquariums. They didn't have anything she really liked so we went to the walmart that carries live fish.
She picked out a 10 gallon set-up. She wanted something like a 5 gallon, but for the same price she could get a 10 gallon with everything included. So she ended up picking out the 10 gallon kit. (First tank I ever had
and look at me now
)
So we went to the craft section as she wanted a "magical" looking tank and picked up some clear marbles and some clear and light blue stones. They were beautiful! She also picked up a small bag of aqua-green gravel.
Then after we got the tank and substrate, she was still looking for the "perfect" decorations. So we went BACK to petsmart and we still didn't find anything there. So we went to pet Supermarket (they had pure white female bettas
but I had no money and didn't want to add her to my 120 gallon risking her not getting along with the other 12 pigs.
) and she found this really mystical looking dragon holding a pearl which matched the green gravel and the white stones perfectly. And then two pearl white plastic plants.
The dragon has pink and purple on him too so she is going to get some smaller pink and purple plants to match with the dragon.
I added mr. pegasus lastnight and even though the tank has a current he looks like he is having a great time in the 10 gallon. We plan on tying a black nylon stocking around the filter intake tube to lesten the current, but he seems fine how the current is now. He has plenty of places to rest and get away from it. But we will be monitoring him for the next few weeks.
So...since it is a pretty big tank and looks kind of empty for a 10 gallon with just a betta, what could she add to the tank?
I was thinking some albino cories. They could be Pegasus's minions.
