My 20 gallon is an Aqueon, my 40 is a Marineland (I think). I love them both. And if you buy them new, stores will have a return policy on them in case a seam leaks or theres a crack you can't see.

The only time I recommend buying second-hand is if you're purchasing a large tank and are willing to learn how to reseal it. Otherwise, it's cheaper (and safer) to buy from a store!

Oh also, I heard betta fish like shallow water so does that mean something as tall as 12" is too tall for them?

Do you guys have any tank brand recommendations? I definitely need one with a lid.

They are great for supplies! Our LFS actually partners with them because of how much they recommend them.

I was thinking of ordering supplies from this company. I have heard good things and they have good guides.

Checkout used tanks often people will be nearly giving them away, just make sure to fill it up outside first for a few days to make sure it’s not leaking. Never take a tank with cracks even if they’re small and are current ply holding water

Or, you can typically do it cheaper by piecing it together yourself. Tank, light, cover(optional), heater, filter, air pump, airline hoses, bubble wand, substrate, and then obviously decorations (nothing plastic) and the fish.

I reccomend tetras as well, you want a lot 10-20 as theyre schooling fish and they have a high casualty rate especially when you first get them

You can get a 20 gallon tall kit at most pet stores for about $200 that will include just about everything except substrate, plants, and fish.

Bird, I loved my tetras, I believe I had the 2 for 4/5 years? But do be weary when you get them, I originally had 4 but unfortunately we lost 2 very shortly after due to the 'professionals' we talked with I'll informing us on the best amount for our tank!

@charm, I was hoping to keep it less than $500

Should always try our best with animals. Research is worth it

Like with anything it takes a lot of research (and it's a bit of an investment) to do things right.

Bettas are definitely able to get away with a 10. I just wouldn't go lower, they explore and swim around way more than people realize

After 3 months of work and almost 20k down the drain my truck will finally be repaired and drivable tomorrow >_< proud of myself for not giving up

Bird, Unfortunately I never got to try a planted tank, but I've heard amazing things! I do really wish I'd had time to lol

For preferably a smaller tank. Less than 20 gallons.

Other than betta fish, what are some good beginner fish?

Meet Juan! June 4, 2017 01:16 PM

After several months of looking for a new creature, I have /finally/ found the perfect guy.

Meet Juan, a Dutch Warmblood 13 yr old Bay gelding. He's a cute mover with an adorable jump, and a huge floating stride to boot! He's done it all, from indoors to big derbies :)
(Sorry for the bad picture, it was all I grabbed! He's also looking a bit mangey right now, and needs a good body clip and his mane seriously needs to be pulled)

http://s1374.photobucket.com/user/HEEVelveteen/media/IMG_6123_zps0d7q8jub.jpg.html

About 2 weeks ago my trainer brought Juan to our farm for me to try. We hacked him a bit on the first day, and saw that he was a little off in his hind end. So we decided to let him chill for the night and do some jumping in the morning to see if maybe he had just banged himself in the trailer and it would resolve itself. So the next day we jumped him in our GP field at 7:30am, and without a lunge or anything, this horse went and fearlessly jumped over all of our solid XC jumps and some big liverpools. Without a peek. We were all stunned, but we're worried because he was still a bit off. So we then sent him to my trainers barn for him to get injected and checked out by our vet, and sure enough after a little work, he was perfectly sound. Trainer brought him to the horse show we were at for the past 2 weeks, and I showed him this weekend. My trainer wanted to start with something super small, like a 2'6'' class. Unfortunately we couldn't find a 2'6" Hunter class, so he threw me in a little jumper class and just told me to go slow and pretend I was equitating lol. Mind you, this horse is a Hunter. He has never been In a jumper ring. And this horse carted me around without a care in the world. Go Juan.

I'll try and update this next weekend with some riding vids :)

(Also really pleased with the name we chose LOL)
