Hahah... nice... So Foo, what happen to the other tank?
Heheh... you never moss ah? Moss would look nice. So you got CO2 supply? How bout the temperature of your tank? Ai, I can't go far with my small tank also since the temperature is always 20C to 30C.... kills the plants that I put in.... coz the tank is really very small.

What soil you use? If the tank is small, I think no need skimmer right coz can scoop it out....

CFP can't wait, must do everything fast hahhah.... yah, the most important is the light. For me I find it had to get good light for small tank. Anyone got recommendations for a lamp or bulb for a 1ft tank?

QUOTE(NewbieBetta @ Jul 22 2007, 11:35 AM) erm..how come theres a betta fish inside..i tought betta is not suitable in a social tank?female betta izzit? Bettas are ok with certain fishes.... mine is a male plakat, he minds his own business, never fights. They are fighters with their own kind... when it comes to fishes with nice finage or are tiny, they will bully and chase.... but so far my black tetras got no problem.

Ohhh.... hahah... I read bout those DIY chillers, looks complicated and big since need to get old fridge or air cond to make.... but my tank is small. Temperature is around 32C during the day.... sometimes 30C.... if I use a fan, it can go to about 29C or 28C....
