*2 months ago I did a complete 100 % water change and cleaned out my 2.5 gal tank.
*I had rinsed the live plants in the tap water, & 4 out of 6 died.
*The lid to the filter broke off
*I discovered the filter canister has to be changed a LOT more often to keep it running properly (no wonder!)
*George has been living the good life in his almost plant-less tank
*I discovered george will chase after and try to eat the red dot from the laser thermometure I use
*I set up the 3 gallon bowl yesterday with the fake plants, new gravel, and the 2 struggling live plants (and the filter)
*George is acclimating now
~Tuesday was my cousin's birthday, & I finally got to give her that bowl! As soon as I arrived we set it up. Her old fish, Sushi, died a couple days before. But now she has a beautiful purpleish pink delta tail! The bowl looks HUGE with the one small fish, and one small 1 inch decoration in the center! I also gave her something so if she wants to set up a filter, she can.
*edit- Here is her betta, Sushi, that just died. He's just the fat one c:
And here is the fancy shmancy painting I did of him in about 10 minutes..
(If you notice, this one says 'Zelilaa' in the corner. Yet again another pen name phase) ~I went to petco about 3 months ago and got that photo shoot I wanted to! I'll upload the photos later today or tommorow.
update~*they are in the photo gallery, & the best 4 fish ones are in the post above*
~Remeber the article 'New Betta Bulbs & 20 gallon wishful thinking' ?Well, my Dad told me he thinks I'll be ready to get a 20 gallon soon. I've already decided to get a long. I've been searching for deals on craigslist. I'm going to buy everything and set it up next summer or fall! I've already decided on what layout to use for the tank (it will be planted!) http://www.tropica.com/layouts/beginner/starter-layout-%2854l%29/description.aspx
These are the types of fish I'm currently considering.
*Neon Tetras OR Zebra Danios
*ADFs
*Painted Platy
Goodnight to all!
