So I have a 60 gallon freshwater tank I'm taking down but decided I wanted to keep some of my live plants that I'm kinda attached to lol. And since I didn't want to set up anything huge but still have a cool fish and tank to watch I decided to do a betta tank.
What I have is a 10 gallon standard glass aquarium. I painted the back black with some acrylic paint and stacked up some shale rock I had laying around. I also tried something new a sand waterfall. I've never done one and I'm still tweaking it to get just right but I'm pleased with the overall look of it.
The water is a bit cloudy still from fill up and the light on there is just so I could get a pic ultramitly the tank will have no top on it and I will have Anubis plants all along the top of the rock wall sticking out of the water. I'm still working out lighting but I'm trying to get two pendant style lights to hang down over the tank.
Stocking will consist of a single male betta and some snails to clean any algae growth and clean the sand bed. I'm not going to run a filter on this tank as I'm going to use a ton of live plants and do substantial water changes often.
