Waiting For Shirley Aquatics in Kenilworth to get in New Shipment - They Get All Tail Types @ 3.50each.


PS If anyone wants Indian Almond leaves. My Dad Is bringing back Loads for me from India next week.
Pity He can't bring back any Bettas, they are only 30pence each with the exchange rate ATM.

Nice Cube Gill and good to see you around again :D

Thanks Joby

Redone the Tank with New Jenny Shoots.

Planted a Tiger Lilly to see if it will grow and a Pico.

Looking good. Do you normally have a lid on there Gill? or did you just take it off for the picture. I would never leave a tank open, little devils can sure jump :crazy:

I normaly Have the Lid On. Just took it off for the Pix. The Lid is a Peice Of Acrylic Cust to Size then Sandpapered to reduce th amount of light coming in so not to overheat the tank.
You can see the sides have bowed a little but nothing to worry about - I am gonna make some More and try different Styles depending on the Bettas Color. I have a Whole Shelf I can fill With Them in the New PC room. I can put a proper Lighting Unit in it as well. Big enough to Hold 10 Cubes.
 
Isn't it a little small? :blink: I mean even for 1 betta but you've split it and got 2 in there?

The original ones from 2 years ago look fine but your newest ones... :X
 
Yeah me too, just thinking a single male betta in that tank would be lovely without the divider etc. Also isnt that sand bed a bit deep lol? Sorry if im nit-picking but im fussy lol. Isnt anearobic or aerobic bacteria whatever lol?

I agree about the rock, I'd go with something smaller and I think commenting about the sand is pushing it a little. I'm sure Gill knows about bettas too, the sand seems fine to me. The rocks though are looking like they're taking up the bettas free roaming space. Other than that it looks terrific :good:
 
What do you mean pushing it a bit? its just me being my normal fussy self, if someting doesnt look right to me ill say lol :p i call it "freedom of speech" lol... but anyway of he likes it stick wit it :good:

Well a little productive critisism never hurt anyone :) I'm just saying he's not a beginner to keeping bettas and might be offended by being criticized like our friend Aquaking (Different Post) but I guess he might like to hear it, I probably would but would probably disregard it because I'd think it would be fine but thats just hard headed me :lol:
