Hi all, Happy New Year!
I'd like some opinions: I just scored a nice-looking little tank with "built in"/hidden filtration/heater, for free off Nextdoor.com. The main tank area is 3 gallons, with 1 more gallon circulating behind it. (Before any substrate etc.) I will use a little media from my established tank to get it cycled.
I'd like to plant it and stock it with some tiny schooling fish, but I don't want them to be in too small of a tank to be happy. I feel that it's too small for a Betta, and I don't want shrimp, because they remind me of spiders and give me the creeps. LOL
Could I do green tetras or are they too big? I really like them. What would you recommend? EDIT: plant suggestions also welcome!
Thanks!
