    Hi! So I just got my tank and I decided to buy a red-blue halfmoon betta (I named him Avenue), and since he looks really small for his tank; I'm still in question whether to get him 4 pygmy cories and two amano shrimps as tank mates. My questions are: -Is this overstocked, considering I have...

    I ordered Eco Complete Planted Black aquarium substrate from Petco to use in my 20 gallon cory tank. I will be getting lots of plants, so I thought it would be good. I thought it was sand, but it came today and it's actually small gravel. I'm worried that it's going to be too rough on my...

    I'll be buying my betta 7.4 gallon tank soon and I was wondering if I'd get away with anything else in there with him. I'm quite happy him being by himself with some shrimp/snails, but I'd love to have a small group of pygmy cories with him if I can. I plan a sand substrate, silk plants and some...
