Got my new driftwood and plants in, so did some updating. Here's m 5 gallon. Have my baby betta, Nameless, in this tank, along with some CPDs and couple of male guppies. Need to add some water, but otherwise looking good. Going to be switching the light fixture to a Finnex Planted+ in a few days, and taking the lamp to double up on my 10 gallon and see how it grows.
The 10 gallon with some new plantings, too. About a week ago I also changed the filter I was using on this tank. I had both a Whisper 10i and a Tom Mini Rapids Canister on this tank, and they were *not* doing a good job. The tank was consistently murky and had a ton of particulates in the water :-? I had Purigen in the canister, too. So I switched to an AquaClear 20, and it's really cleared up now. Looks the best it has looked since I started the tank. I did have to baffle the filter with a soap dish and pebbles baffle, and that worked great. Merlot is a happy betta
Soap dish baffle. Holding some cuttings in there until I figure out what to do with them.
