if you want a plant to fill up allot of space vallis can be really good but it will need to be removed occcasionally as it will spread any type that will be good as when they reach the surface they start laying accros it (easy to get around just cut them off at a little lower then the waters surface) other good plants for space filling elodea densa or cambomba plants. for a carpeting plant java moss is difficult to beat but first what is your exact lighting.putting fish in with a betta is very difficult i think neons will be one of the most they do occasionaly attack other fish with long fins or betta like coloring e.g reds blues but it can be done i would say to use another tetra like silvertip glowlight or rummynose (probably the best due to their size).
Spot on info!
This is not my first rodeo with fish or plants. I have a lot of vals (thanks to recent purchase). Also have more java moss and java fern than I know what to do with. All of my tanks are planted.
I've heard combomba over and over again. never tried keeping it. glad you mentioned.... i will check it out yet again.
My lighting is something I am trying to figure out...... NO parameters given on this light. If i had to guess based on size and a same marineland brand, I would say 200ish lumens LED. low. I will be upgrading this - just wanted some input first.
I have always always always told people no neons period with a betta. i've found glowlights to be mean fin nippers. and rummynose not my style.
I think some cardinals are in store... unless I hear better advice.
Andddd.
