Ok, so I'm sure everyone would love to see the variety of betta tanks/bowls that we have, so post pics of yours here!:-D I have to find my camera, and then I'll get pics of my tanks
Thank you.:-D I'm very happy with the way it turned out and it blends with the room instead of being sort of an eyesore.That is really pretty!:-D
Omg that is pretty crazy! I cannot believe that someone created something like that It would definitely be a trip to walk into a bathroom and see a fish tank sink:shock:Okay, obviously not my set-up...but I thought this was worth sharing on here...definately interesting!

that's a lovely looking set up Kaylin, I'm just curious what plant is that up front in the middle?
Cableguy, where did you get the light? Is it made specifically for plants? I'm asking because I had baby tears growing on some driftwood of mine, but I don't have plant lights and I let it all die. But it was so pretty! I would like to have it again, (MINUS all the SNAILS it brought into my tanks)... You said it is not hard to grow? The petstore told me it is difficult to keep it alive.This is my female. My fiancee just named her Bloody Mary. She has a 2.5 gallon tank with a Hagen Elite Mini filter. There are Java Fern, Dwarf Baby Tears, Crypto Parva, and some Blyxa. The tank gets dosed every other day with Excel and once a week with Flourish. The light is a 10 watt mini CFL full spectrum light.
OK, thanks. I think I have one of those bulbs in my 5 gallon. I wasn't sure what CFL was but I guess FL stands for flourecent? Hmm... I guess mine died because it was not getting plant nutrients. It was very pretty. Here's a few pics.I have a 10 watt mini CFL light that I got at Wal-Mart in the pet section. It is the screw in type and I have it in an incandescent hood. When it comes to baby tears, you need to put it in the substrate in clumps. It wont grow on the wood. I dose the tank with Flourish Excel every other day and Flourish once a week. The Excel is artificial carbon for the plants. It is like CO2 for them. I have had mine growing for a few months now. The thing about this plant is that it likes high light and lots of nutrients. If you do it like that, it should take off for you. If you have any more questions, let me know.
