My aquarium is extremely blah right now. (yes blah is a word :p ) My platies, pleco and rats (yup, rats) ate most of my plants. Also I went from about a dozen platies to 2. The fry disappeared..probably eaten by someone. My foundation adults all dead now. I think it may have been a spine curvature disease or wtv it's called. And my only 1rst gen baby, over a year old at the time, died as well. So I have just 2 left. I think their both female, so no breeding. My pleco is never to be seen and my Betta passed recently.
So yea, my tank is pretty baren right now.
1rst thing's first, I need to replant it. My aquarium store doesn't have any anubis or java fern, the local pet shop sucks and there was no one to be found in the fish section to serve me, so stormed out empty handed after 15mins.
Once I eventually manage to replant it. I'd like to repopulate it, but I'm not sure with what. I know I want another betta but I feel like he ought to be the last addition so he doesn't get all territorial when I add new fish. I like my playties, they have great colors, and having babies was always kind of fun. Sept they eat EVERYTHING! They ate my freaking apple snale! They eat the pleco's food. They poop up a storm and they are questionable with the betta. The 2 I have now must have been stunted or are inbred cause they are half the size of their parents but the full grown adults were nipping my betta's fins at one point and never gave him a chance to eat. So I'm thinking of doing something a lil safer like a tetro or rasbora or minnow. But I don't think I can mix schooling fish, like I'd have to wait for these platties to kick it right? And who knows how long that will be, maybe not for another year. I could set them up in my spare tank with a few more platies but that would mean buying an extra filter and heater sad
Anyway, suggestions welcome/needed.
1. List of betta compatible tankmates
2. List of easy plants that don't need a ton of sunlight. (I'm actually moving downstairs in a month or two and will have very little natural sun light.
