Wohoooooooooooooooooo got the Hoplo Cat, now tell me he/she isnt just lovely

@ Radar

Im really please how the tank has turned out. I would recommend Java-Plants to anyone startin a tank and requiring plants for it, they were excellent quality. which certainly helped

Beautiful tank! But just so you know male and female bettas really shouldnt be kept together. The male betta will torture the females. They could even die from the stress. You should rehome the male, but the females are fine together.

But other than that great job!!!!!!

What type of planted tank is that, high or low light? How many watts per gallon of water do you have?

Btw, very nice looking tank!

High or Low light, erm dunno i just bought the 36" plant collection from Java-Plants lol
Watts per gallon its just using the stock Juwel dual tube lighting that came with the tank. I am looking for the reflectors though so it sends a little more light into the tank.

Funny coz currently the females keep chasing the male, the 2 females then puff all their fins up and dance round each other....lovely to watch though

They lookin great! Just so you know I think the bottom right plants (white edges on it) are actually called white ribbon and aren't real aquatic plants. fishkiller_nomore told me that one so maybe he can help you out at identifiy it.

Awesome looking tank! Really love the wood.

I hate to be a party pooper but you really should remove either the two females or the male, they might get on to start with but sooner or later you will come home to a dead fish. I would say, remove the male, they tend to do better in their own tank. A nice 2 or more gal tank with some plants would look lovely and save you and the fish a lot of heartache.

Nice progress!
Have you put any more lights in or are you using the 2 that came with the tank?
The bulbs that came with mine were quite dull and changing them made the tank alot nicer.
