Just got the Ember tetras finally!! I didn't realize how tiny and cute they are! I got 10, but I might get one more. The neon tetra that had that weird tumor was breathing heavily and barely could swim when I checked on the tank this morning, so I ended up euthanizing her. So now I only have 8. One of the ivory mystery snails also failed to thrive, but I got a really pretty magenta mystery snail! It's borrowing a lot in the sand, is that normal for mystery snails? The embers have already got their color back after only a few hours.
Also, I added the cherry shrimp into the ten gallon with the neon tetras, do you know when they will start breeding? I don't see any berried ones yet.

Same, but I didn't buy any. But I saw them for the first time recently and they are tiny little things yes!

I can't imagine how tiny (and adorable) the fry are...

Here are some tips for your 10-gallon tank project:
- Cycling: Use beneficial bacteria and monitor water parameters during cycling.
- Aquascape: Arrange ghost wood and rocks for hiding spots and swimming areas.
- Neon Tetras: Move them to the larger tank, maintain water quality.
- Equipment: Calibrate the heater, consider a timer for your light.
- Plant Selection: Choose low to medium-light plants like Java Fern and Anubias.
- Maintenance: Regular water changes and plant pruning are crucial.
- Enjoy: Building and maintaining your tank can be a rewarding hobby.

Thank you! I haven't done an update in a while, so figured I'd do one now. I have 8 neons and 8 embers. @jassmine33 I cannot move them to a bigger tank, as I don't have one and can't get one. This was an upgrade from a 5g. I have a timer on the heater and filter.
The plants EXPLODED, and I'm having to take the salvia and duckweed out every other day. I trim the plants every time a do a WC.
Thank you @AlexT ! They are so pretty, and one of them has a pimple on its mouth. I'm not concerned, If any of you watch Luke's Goldies you will remember one of his goldfish had a pimple just like the one on my neon tetras and it didn't pose a problem. Here's a few pics of the tank now. Neon tetras are like...guppies. can't get a picture of them
