Home built aquarium, built specifically for an IKEA kallax unit I had. Scaped and planted, even went for an attempt at a tree. Just waiting for the planting to fill out.

10 days into my rescape. How long should I wait to add shrimp?

My daughter’s snail/shrimp tank and my 10gallon with shrimp, snails and Celestial Pearl Danios. There had to be two tanks to keep the fluorescent stuff out of mine.

Repurposed my old grow tent Co2 setup. Titan controls regulator can be dialed down to make well under 1 bps if wanted

Crazy how much growth happens in just 2 months. Top is last water change, bottom was January 2nd before starting pressurized co2 and PPS Pro.

Found an awesome deal for a 24” planted plus 24/7 light...only problem was it wouldn’t fit the span of my 40 breeder so I had to improvise

Advice for planting a Top Fin bettaflo Soothe

Posted: 08 Mar 2019 01:05 AM PST

Hey guys, I could use some advice on how to plant the Top Fin bettaflo Soothe (link to tank below)

https://www.petsmart.com/fish/starter-kits/top-fin-bettafloandtrade-sootheandtrade-betta-aquarium-5262074.html

So I found this little tank out by the dumpster in my apartment complex and brought it home to see if I could turn it into a planted vase, but it turns out that the tank itself is in perfect condition, so I am just going to use it as is. Hopefully, if it turns out well I can use it for holding my baby endler fry until they get big enough not to be eaten by their own mothers. It does have an odd sort of under gravel filter system so I was hoping for a little guidance on how to plant it, or if I should plant it while using the filter at all.

First, I have two different types of substrate available right now, normal gravel rock that I could possibly put root tabs in, or fluval stratum which I am slightly worried might end up going through the plate in the bottom or not allowing any waterflow at all.

I am also worried about how the plant roots will be affected by the bottom plate. Will they clog it up? Are there certain plants that would do better in an odd little tank like this? I have a rather disgusting amount of guppy grass that I could plant in there as well as some dwarf val. I am still really new to plants so any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thank you for your time and any advice you might have.
