1ft tank

just to show my 1 ft tank, with 30 bumble bee, 50 cherry, 1 glass, 2 yamato, 5 red nose, 1 betta, 1 apple snail.


please comment. But dont zap me because you dont like my set up.

i am a newbie, who decorate my 1 ft tank for fun.

this is the overall photo. meet the betta, ah hong.

initially i dont know how to decor. So, i bought 4 moss balls. then my colleague cum friend gave me the Dw with taiwan moss. The pebble was re-located to this tank from my father's tank.

bumble bee on taiwan moss. anyway i just trimmed the moss, gave away those which i trimmed

cherry shrimp............... i have many of them. I bought 20 from a bro here, only to realised that my existing 20 already breeded 10 more. hai.............

anyway that;s the red nose in picture 1, but the nose not very red

there are 2 bumble bee. I have 30 bee but somehow, they always hide.

anyway my betta doesnt feed on shrimp. he eat nothing but bloodworm.

bro... i think it's better to take out apple snail... cause it will chew on ur mosses...

Nice to see another bro with a lone betta setup

Anyway.. the pebble doesn't really blend in well in this scape.. if possible, get a few more or just discard it.

Moss balls? Or you meant the morimo balls? They are pretty hard to maintain, especially in a small tank where the flow rates are pretty weak..

You can try to use the moss as a carpet, that will help to lay a good foreground.

ok thanks for the advise. I will relocate the apple snail

but the pebble quite big, if i put a few more then it's too cramps. I am thinking of the small granite stone in the foreground.

abt the moss ball, no choice leh. That time din know mah. bought already then hope that everything will be well lor.
i squeezed a moss ball, then it torn by itself. I am thinking of using it as a carpet, but the thing is i dun know how to weight it down.

Btw, side track a bit, u r from ntu ? tml i will be going to ntu for recuitment fair.

If it's the case, then just take it out. it'd be a little extra

you can get wire meshes from LFS and use strings to tie it down.

Yeah.. i went to the career fair today.. alot of freebies!!!
