Is this complete set-up good to go?

Posted on October 7, 2010 by admin| 9 Comments

I’m setting up a 10 gallon freshwater tropical aquarium. I’m currently cycling the water with no fish.

Here’s what I have (or will have) in there once the cycle is complete:
-1 Male Betta
-2 Zebra Danios
-6 Tetras of some sort (whichever are least likely to nip at my Betta)
-2 Cherry or Amano Shrimp
-1 Sponge filter
-1 piece of driftwood covered in Java Moss
-1 heater keeping the water at 80°F
-Decorations, logs, etc.
-1 Incandescent Light (off at night)
-1 DIY co2 feed for the plants, and to keep my PH down (out-of-tap it’s over 8)
Any problems with that?

I have a 10 gallon community tank. Im looking for a peaceful, colorful, invertebrate that is a good size for a 10 gallon.
Are there any that exist? Im looking something along the lines of crabs, or crayfish because I already y have shrimp. Thank You.

Is light a good enough source of heat for a fish tank?

Posted on August 29, 2010 by admin| 5 Comments

If I have a 10 gallon fish tank that I want to put some freshwater fish/frogs/shrimp in, will i have to purchase a heater?
Or can I use a light as the source of heat?
What is the cheapest heating source? I’ve seen something called a heating pad?
Does anybody have any advice for me?

Also, in a 10 gallon tank, will my goldfish be fine without a heater? Since they dont have one in their current tank? (I’m just thinking about when they outgrow it)
10 gallons too small for a goldfish? they are only 1.5 inches long…?
and the petco lady set me up with a 3 gallon tank and 2 fancy tailed goldfish…haha but from what ive read they’ll outgrow that!
