Just put royal in that tank! Hes currently adapting. I will clean the larger one later today.
P.s. @ shellieca. The 1/2 gallon is smaller than my other normal tank. I looked at its box again and realised it says 15 litres not 1.5 ! Sorry for my typo. But now im wondering how frequently i should be cleaning it? Thanks.
OH that makes a difference, MUCH BETTER SIZE!!!! I would do a 50% twice a week with maybe a 100% once a month.
No I haven't. I try to find the thing on fish IN cycles. I'm getting ready to go a 100% water change, unless someone doesn't think that's a good idea? I had four neons die, so I was told to clean it out.
I don't know if you've done this or not, but theres no need for a 100% water change, I'd only do a 50%. And I'd be testing the water with a liquid test kit for ammonia, nitrites, nitrates, & Ph - DAILY. The neons could've died for any number of reasons, bad stock, ammonia in the water, etc. It's up to you if you want to empty the entire tank.
I have a heater too,but my friend told me that it wasnt neccesary since i have a room heater. The 1/2 gallon is just for while im cleaning the 15 litre tank.

After stopping by the pet store, I picked up a ton of live plants. Now there's a mix of faux and live plants in there. My betta is having a hay day. The new fish is acting a little skiddish, but he was even more skiddish in the pet store. I think he's just tired. He's had such a busy day. Again, I forgot the algae wafers. >.< I bought a test kit, but the store had tested my water for me, since I brought in a sample. They said I was all good, and since the nitrate increase was so little, it was probably due to the tank cycling. I'll try and post a pic of my tank soon. Everyone is hiding, except for Dovakiin. Who knows where he'll be next, though. He's a happy camper. :P
