    Hey everyone! As many others did, I got here thanks to Foo the Flowerhorn's videos. Since I was a kid I've always wanted to set up a tank and the simplicity and natural look of this method pushed me to finally try. Right now I'm in the process of Soak-And-Draining the soil, waiting to start...

    I've researched the method pretty thoroughly and am almost ready to start setting up my tank. It will be a 10g betta sorority tank (5 fish). I have two questions that I've seen conflicting info on. First, water movement? Betta do not like a lot of movement. How do I balance this with...

  11. Nano Aquariums
    I am wanting to start a planted tank in the 2.5gal setup I have for my betta, but am unsure of lighting. I spoke to one of the plant guys at my LFS, and he told me fluval pcl13 would be the best bet for the 2.5g, but I am a college student and am trying to save as much money with this setup as I...
