Ok so as you may or may not know, I am setting up anew tropical tank
I have done a fair bit of research so far, and I just want to see what I have missed
I know I need these:
1. Tank big enough for all the fish.
2. Plants to hide etc.
3. Ornaments/hides.
4. Filter.
5. Substrate ( gravel or sand or whatnot)
6. Fish food ( tropical and betta)
7. Fish ( of course lol)
8. Light/UV
9. Tank running for 2 weeks to get the correct water quality
10. Water tester kit ( PH,KH,Nitro,Ammonia etc)
11. Heater
anything I have missed please tell me
these are the fish I am putting together:
5 glass bloodfin tetras (top of tank space)
10 kuhli loaches (substrate space filled and cleanliness of tank)
2 bristlenose catfish (as above)
3 longfin glass fish
3 glass catfish
3 red eye tetras
3 rummynose tetras
1 deep black/bold red/white betta as a focal point in the tank
my theme is black/red/white/clear
Tell me what you think? And any extra advice would be great
