I love your book shelf! Nice tank too

Thanks! That was our old one that I'll be using for something else now. My uncle made the bookshelf

No worries! Sorry for the confusion - I shared a photo of the old tank and then two of the new tank, but I should have clarified. Thanks!!

Right now I just have one male betta. He's all bent and crumpled sideways because he got sucked into a water filter so now he swims on his side if he wants to get anywhere

Aww sorry

I still have three, but have been thinking about combining, and retiring one aquarium.

The 15 gallon on the left has had six chocolate kuhli loaches for years, don't want to upset their environment. The 5.5 on the right is my shrimp and quarantine tank. The shrimp all died, not sure what happened. There are about 7 Ember tetras in the 5.5 that I bought for the 29 gallon. There are currently about 4 Ember tetras in that big tank, and about 6 striped Kuhli loaches, don't want to disturb those. I've not seen my Glowlight tetra for a couple weeks, think he finally died. He was about 9 years old, but swam with the Embers...they were cousins, after all.

Fuzzi, the plants look great! Mine never did that good.

Thank you! The big aquarium was set up about 10 years ago. I've tried growing different plants, but the Java fern is the only one that grew, stayed. They keep the nitrates down.

ETA: fluorescent light on 15g, LEDs on 29g, both grow well.
