updates: hes doing good i added the neons and they are fine at first he seemd interested but then gave up when he relized he could never cach them. they dont nip him there busy playing tag among themselvs

hehe there all so fat

it all depends on the beta, some will be fine and others wont

the first 3 ingretient in my pelets areWhole Salmon, Halibut, and Shrimp. Is that good? i tryed feeding him both freez dryed and frozen blood worms but he couldnt seem to get his mouth around them, he doesnt eat alot of foods because he cant swalow them or somthing, somtmes hell get them inside his ...

my beta (sory bout the bad photo he hates camras)

should i be feeding my beta other things besides the beta pelets? I've heard of betas and neons being fine together, i think it depends on the fish and mine seems pretty docile so far.

the other day i found a little green plant in my goldfish pond so i decided to take it and put it in my beta tank. Here it is along with some other randome pics http://s1056.photobucket.com/albums/t377/kslmon/ any idea on what it is?

i would do that if i had somewhere to put the beta, but i dont (besides the bowl). Anyway the corys are all doing good but they wont school! i only got 3 at first to see if they would work so do u think when i add more they will start to school, also do the albino ones get along with the regular one...

OMG i totally forgot i always quarentine new fish! i gess i was so preocupied wondering if they would get along that it just didnt cross my mind :shock: they seem totaly fine and everything i hope nothings wrong with them :( ! i forgot to mention this in my last post but do cories glass surf? thats ...

no problem, i hope ur beta gets better. alls well in my tank i just picked up some corys and hes doing just fine also, any input on the mystery plant?

heres a pic of the tank, my beta (that ones really bad sience he darts away from the camra everytime i get close to the tank),the mystery plant i rescued, and a randome pic of my gecko. http://s1056.photobucket.com/albums/t377/kslmon/

good thing that i got this before i treated my beta!

i do think that the no3 was very high in the bowl, i overfed him (hes a good begger) and he was owercrowded, and i did close to NO water changes untill irelized what cycling was wich was just a few months ago i think all of that would lead to very high nitrates

really, oh than good thing i asked before using it! ill keep doing the salt treatment and i plan to get a bunch of plants this weekend wich should take care of my water quality issues any idea if it actually was no3 that caused this, or is it somthing else?

the no3 levels in my tank are uncomfortably high at 30(my taps at 20 wich is an issue) what plants will consume alot of this? also in the bowl the levels were much higher (i bought him before i knew what cycling was and was lucky that it cycled itself) and his 2 little feeler fin thingies, the ones ...
