Plants don’t add bacteria but they do consume some of the toxins

@Em, that's a good idea. Do the plants add bacteria too?

Beneficial bacteria can be hit or miss I’ve heard but I personally have had good results with it. If you can steal some established filter media from someone that boosts it too

If you add beneficial bacteria which you can get at pet stores it can make it faster :)

With cycling though you have to take into account a brand new fresh tank can run forever but unless something is put into the system, it will never be cycled because the beneficial bacteria doesn't have anything to feed on

Yeah I did have issues with nitrite for months myself thinking back

@Zz, just a month is nothing. I can do that. My research says 10-12 weeks which is like 3 months!

Well if you are wanting just one, a betta is the way to go. They are super friendly and personable and very easy to care for

I second the research. Specifically research the nitrogen cycle. Running it for A week isn’t enough usually. Mine took a month

I think I am just scared of having multiple fish vs just one.

I had them breed back when I had a large angelfish tank lol of course the angels ate the eggs

I would just say overall ALWAYS do your research! Every fish needs something different such as tank size, food. etc. Also some fish don't get along with others. :) Plus what works for one person might not work for another.

Corys are cute but they theyre bottom dwelling, but that doesn’t mean you can’t have something else to hang in the middle

No they are small. You can even get pygmy ones which are really tiny
Hummingbird Meadows
09:13:28 Bird
@Angels, don't they need bigger tanks though?
Insignia Elites
09:13:25 Em
@bird yes! they scavenge the substrate for food! But watching them breed is really inserting! Mine do every so often but the eggs always get eaten. They are considered a bottom dweller :)

@Stardust, sounds like she has just had a long day.

Hey everyone!

I am still learning the ropes of art and finding my style, so I would love some critique of my progress so far. Here are some pieces I have done with different themes, I would love if anyone experienced in the art field could please give me some pointers?

I really do thank you in advance and appreciate your time :)

Though im not in the art field id like to say your style is unique in a way and really cute
But #1 The WIngs Need To be Blended Into The Body And The Color Match the Coat
#2 Your Eyes Need A Bit Of Work
#3 Try Blending your legs Into The Grass A Bit more or add a layer or grass ontop of it
#4 same thing
#5 I think the fawns lighting is a bit off
#6 its my favorite but try to blend the socket of the wing in a bit

I agree with Olive, but the biggest thing is shadows and reflections <3 I don't know which app you use, but I love Krita.
I've been compiling my favorite tutorials for a while now, I'll edit in a bit with em<3
Edit: Here they all are, in no particular order :3
Roanies Manip Tutorial(Love this one!)
Hope these help<3

The first things I notice are a lack of a shadow on the ground and a lack of depth (shadow/highlight) on your horses. I definitely recommend checking out the tutorials that KPH has listed. I think learning to place a shadow on the ground as well as add shadows and highlights to your horse, mane/tail, and wings will really take your art to a next level. :) I go over this in my tutorial (KPH linked to it).

I think another thing to pay attention to is the tone of your background compared to the horse. For example, the background of your last piece is very blue/green toned while your horse has more of a yellow tone. If your program has a Color Balance tool, you can use this to adjust the tone of your horse to match the same tones as your background. This can be super helpful to get your horse to "fit" in its background.
You can also adjust the tones of the "extras" in your art (antlers, wings, animals) to fit both your horse and the background.
It's amazing what difference the little details can make!

I think you really have down the other major foundation components to art - such as horse body prep and the beginnings of grounding. For your grounding, I would go in with a softer, translucent brush to erase legs so it blends easier into your background.
I really like your manes and tails - that last piece especially has some phenomenal hair action!

If you have any questions, my mailbox is always open!
