Bettas are also tropical, so they require a heater. And they're very sensitive to filters with any kind of water flow, and require sponge filters instead therefore

Yes. 10% water change a week, and checking water parameters frequently

@Versa, even a betta aquarium?

I had a betta as a starter fish. With any fish, it's important to remember aquariums are a heck ton of work

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.

Straws July 30, 2017 10:30 AM

So, now that I've been on this game a little longer, I've been seeing the word straws more often, and I've been trying to piece it together but I'm still slightly confused. What are they and what's their purpose? Is it frozen semen from stallions? (cause that's what my first guess was)

Thank you!

You can find this answered in the game help section:

Semen Collection
The Horse Eden Veterinary Office offers a semen collection service. Collectyour favorite stallion's semen in straws for later use. Or to sell to other members. It costs 2500 to use a straw. You may collect up to 30 straws from each stallion each year. A stallion may not have more than 50 straws in existence, whether you own the straws or other members own them. Foals produced from straws do not count against a stallion's yearly foal count.

You may sell your straws several ways. You can place them for sale in the Store. Keep in mind that any Premium member may purchase them and use them on any mare. Straws not sold within 7 days will be take down from sale by the game. If you want to sell straws selectively, then you can mark the "Straws Available" box on your Stallions page under "Put Horse Up For Breeding". Another option is to sell straws in the Forum, where you can create an advertisement.
