| Em I love plecos lol What kinds do you have? I only have a little Bristlenose |

| 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😠|
| Angels angels |
| 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. |
| ZequineZ |
| 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 |
| Hummingbird Meadows |
| @Angels, can I get a photo of it? Did you cycle the tank with the live plants beforehand? |
| Angels angels |
| Bird I have mine in a 2.5 gallon with some rocks a small filter and bubbler and I do have live plants but it isn't necessary. The only reason people recommend live plants is the plastic ones can tear their fins, but you can also get the silk ones. In the wild they literally live in puddles so they are fine with anything, but obviously you want to take care of them lol |

| Starting to get into TBs a little bit and whoever said it is oversaturated with Sabino is right xD Never noticed since I do mainly SH |
| Hummingbird Meadows |
| @Angels, really? Can I ask what your setup is? I feel like it sounds really complicated because everyone reccomends live plants. |
