Bye guys I could ise some tips for my upcoming 30 gallon tank pls reply:):help:
 
Welcome home to AC!

are you going to go planted for the 30 gallon?

one tip is to make sure your filtration is more than adequate. for a 30 gal i would recommend two hob filters, both rated for at least a 20 gal tank, if not higher. this way, if one filter konks out on you, you aren't left with a huge fishbowl and rising ammonia levels.

welcome to AC! There isn't a fish that can be kept in .5 gallons of water. The only thing that could is one or two shrimp, plants, or small snails. As for the 5 gallon, your options are kinda of limited, you should look into bettas, dwarf gourami's, honey gourami's, endler's livebear's and African Dwarf Frogs. Those will all make good additions to that tank.
