Bird Lol another thing you can do is you can use a plant like pothos that can live with their roost fully in water and the betta can live amongst the roots if you suspend the plant above the tank with just the roots in the water |

Ok so this is a genuine question for any parents on HEE - My mom said dinner's ready and I said what are we having. She said chicken, shrimp, and salad. I said what kind of salad and she started freaking out and telling me I'm rude and not supportive. Now here's the question - Is there a reason for this? |

@Angels, since I want a house plant might as well do an aquarium plant. XD |

Bird, I gave up on planted and now mine is driftwood and rockery, I used to have a whole community of different fish, now I just have a lot of Platys some comets and some bristlenose. |

I think a lot of people think keeping live aquarium plants is hard, but most of the common ones you find you don't have to do any extra things to care for them. Maybe take out any dead leaves when they have them but they live off of the waste from the fish |

It took my a hot minute to realize y'all where talking about fish😠|

Bird -Click- -Click- I don't have a full picture of the set up but here is my boy and you can kind of see the set up. I did cycle the tank before hand |

Bird, With fish tanks bigger is actually easier, it depends on the space you have available but with the nitrogen cycle bigger tanks are much easier to maintain water quality, smaller tanks are more likely to have something like an ammonia spike happen quicker. Big tanks are much more forgiving. I have a 500L which I upgraded from. 300L. Those are both too big for a betta though so don’t think you need that. 5-10g will be perfect |

ZZ That is literally where they originate. It isn't spreading anything. They originate from thailand and asia and live in stagnant pools. |

@Zz, I was thinking of a 5 gallon or maybe even 10 gallon, but I'm worried that might be too big. |

I just wanna jump in to say the ‘live in puddles’ part is a harmful notion to be spreading, 2.5g is the absolute bare minimum, 5g is the ideal minimum |

@Angels, can I get a photo of it? Did you cycle the tank with the live plants beforehand? |
