Hey all. Born again newbie here, seeing as I last owned Tropical Fish about 30 years ago, I have a couple of questions I want to throw out to you.
My tank arrives this week, so I have plenty of time before the first inhabitants do. It's a 60L (assuming my maths is up to scratch I make that about 13 gallons?? so should be ideal for the numbers I have in mind.) Once everything has settled down and it is ready to accept the fish I was thinking of adding;
4 x Neon Tetras, then later 4 x Zebra Danios and then finally, 2 x Bettas (female). I don't believe the Bettas would have a problem with the other fish, as they're not as aggressive as the males, but would this set-up be ok? Or would guppies be a better option than Bettas?
And finally.....Shrimps!! Is it necessary to have them in the tank to help with the cleaning. I like the idea of having them, just haven't been able to find out much about them.
Thanks for listening; You can now go back to your normal programs!
