Hi again. I have a question about antoher setup I am going to set up :P.
Don’t kill me after reading the question! Read the whole thing.
My sister wanted me to reorganize the 112litres tank we have. She wanted to have betta splendens, others were for me to decide. After buying the Betta it came to me, that this one is extremely docile. He isn’t even trying to show off before the mirror! So I thought… If I could plant an awful lot of the Cryptocoryne wendtii, cover it with a canopy of several bigger roots, than I might be able to house (not breed, for this I have other tanks) for some time a small group of Paros, at least until thęy reach the puberty and become fertile. What do You make of it?
The idea was to combine:
1+2 Betta splendens
20 Trigonostigma hengeli
6 Pangio semicincta
one Atyopsis moluccensis
and 3-5 Parosphromenus.
The tank is 80x35x40 cm. There would be a layer of sand, later enriched with home bred(!) tubifex. About 1/3 Of aquarium would be covered in Cryptocoryne wendtii, a one nice Ceratopteris in the background. A bit of Cryptocoryne retrospiralis, and Hygrophila corymbosa minima. So the bottom layer will be covered pretty well! The floating cover will be created by Salvinia natans.
So what do you make of it?
