Re: Best Plants for a Betta Tank

One more thing, if you go with Cryptocoryne, don't freak out if the leaves melt at first. It's normal when they adjust to new water. Just trim the dead bits and it'll bounce back.

Re: Best Plants for a Betta Tank

Anubias and Java Fern are solid choices for low light. They don't need much, just tie them to driftwood or rocks. Bettas usually leave them alone. If you want something for the substrate, try Cryptocoryne Wendtii. It's hardy and doesn't need strong light. Just avoid planting it too deep in the sand.

Re: help me name my one eyed cichlid

I've got a betta, One Eyed Willy, and I think that name would suit this little guy just fine.

Re: care for kribensis

I'd be cautious about adding a Krib to your tank. The mosquito fish being neptunes, they might get nipped at by the Krib, or even worse, killed. The angel might also be a target for the Krib's aggression.
