erm yerr... i only found 2, so thats why i started a new thread.

Right, I have shown you this one, but will add again

I have had a slight change around today, but it's going to be changed again as it just doesn't look right!

Please excuse the mess in the kitchen, it's waiting to be decorated!

Why do they have to be under 30L? They require all the same things as larger tanks so size is irrelevant.

 

[Haych]

lol cause she asked for that? Isn't it all personal preference lol

This was set up yesterday - don't worry, I'll be adding some floating plants and tall plants for cover.

HUH?
As Haych said, because i asked for pictures on small tanks. I will be limited space wise, so i hope to get *a few* small individual tanks.

Thanks for the pics haych and Jonty

I think the point was that some people (Honeythorn included) would like to see bettas in 5-10 gallons minimim so they'd be wary of you getting too fixated on small tanks. I can sympathise and I would have my bettas in larger tanks if I could afford it. Some will say I'm cruel for keeping them in 3-5 gallon tanks but in my defense, having seen how active Azrael is in his 6 gallon I'm a convert to larger tanks.

Anyway. I can see why Aly wants to see smaller tanks. It's nice to know what people can do with the space, plants and decor wise.

my moss balls don't look like that any more lol

why is it MOST small tanks are hexagonal?

Let's all remember that the original request was to see pictures of smaller tanks. This is not the place to browbeat the OP about the merits of using anything else. I will be watching this thread and if anyone behaves like this, they are apt to get a few days time off.

I requested to see pictures of small tanks
1.) Because of the unfortunate disease outbreak in the divided tank, i have opted to keep bettas in individual tanks. If/When i do eventually get some. This will lessen the chance of a disease spreading.
2.) There is a space issue, so you CAN fit *lots* of 30L tanks in places, but you cant go stick a whopping 2 foot tank everywhere.
3.) Because i like the look of individual betta in individual tanks.

I dont see what the Big Deal is? 15-30L is a decent size. Obv. Bigger is better.
I didnt say;- "can i see you betta vases" or something?!? Or did i?


RANT OVER!
Hope that explains my request better, if it doesnt and you want to argue, dont bother. Because ill just click Report!

Edit: Thanks for stepping in Inchworm, i didnt notice that my post would *offend* people.

Here's my aqua 40

And my 21l hex

If only it still looked like that-only the amazon sword still looks any good I'm going to get some silk plants for the rear under the filter as live don't seem to do any good.
Haych, that plant on the right in your secod pic, where'd you get that from?
