    Help me not kill my GF’s betta

    Hi guys. Rather than searching around for hours and end up not knowing any better, I was wondering if anyone could give me an idea as to what’s going on around the cheek area. The flow is a little high so I’ve turned it down after I noticed but if someone could please check the picture, I would...

    Filters for a low tech Betta cube

    Hi Folks, I'm putting together a 40cm Cube (60L total) which will house a Betta. I'm intending to keep filtration slow and gentle to keep the Betta happy, so will be using a sponge filter. I've not used a sponge filter before so this is an exciting new venture. My question is: will one be...

    Betta sick (fin rot?)

    Our Betta, Laslow, has fin rot (maybe?) that we don’t seem to be able to get rid of. Some context: he usually lives in a 55L tank. He lived in there alone for a while, with a bonsai tree, sand on the bottom, and 4 moss balls. Heater and filter, water temp around 26 degrees. We do regular water...

    Hi from Scotland!

    Hello! Hubby and I have just moved north of the border. We've bought a lovely new place and I'm excited to say I have space for fish keeping again! Reading through some of the threads, though, it seems like things have moved on since I last had a tank (ten years ago) - last time I cycled a...

    Betta Get Sorted

    Just shy of two years ago I bought an Aqua One Aspire 22 tank from P@H when it was on offer with the intention of creating a planted tank for a Betta. At £55 for a tank, lid, LED, heater and filter it was too good a deal to turn down. The filter is terrible and has gone in the spare parts...

    Suitable for a betta?

    I have this nano tank 36*36 which had a betta splenden. Unfortunately he passed away a few days ago. I could replace the fish but the thing is that I am not convinced that the tank is fully adapted for a betta. Check the video and let me know what changes you would do to make the tank more betta...

So, I decided to try what is somehow mainstream - qood looking small tank, lots of plants, good tech, CO2 etc. I am not into hardscape and nature aquariums...

    Rivers Edge - ADA 45P - planted and filled

    After initially having my halfmoon rosetail betta in his own tank and moving him to a peaceful community tank I've decided while he seems happy, he definitely enjoyed being on his own more so this will be tailored to him, plus it satisfies my MTS.... Simple low tech mini jungle theme with...

    Japanese Bonsai Garden - Learning Curve

    Even though my tank won’t be anywhere near the scaped level of most of you I thought it would be good to keep a timeline of mine anyway to show what I’m planning and what I learn along the way as i'm new to all this (hopefully get a few pointers and ideas from any of you as well, be as brutal as...

    Betta Fish in Vase Idea

    Hi guys I know I could post on a Betta forum, but I feel people on this forum have a pretty good understanding of how I think and the planted angle, rather than churning out stats about Betta fish haha. I've been keeping fish for years, marine and tropical on and off, so I'm pretty versed with...
