    UGH!! Of all times for me to not stay on here all day like usual. I missed this and went and got one from Petsmart. I've never seen the long fin in the stores before. I just watched a youtube video of them after I saw your post and they look so neat! DOUBLE UGH!!

    I very much apprieciate the offer and would've loved a chance to meet you.

    My little guy is soooo adorable. I guess it's about an inch long and to my surprise has been out all day. I also picked up a crazy dwarf frog, love those guys, a nerite snail, another snail was given to me because the guy didn't know what it was, actually got 3 of them, and a tiny little female betta. It's the smallest girl that I've ever had so I hope I get to have her longer than a year or two. Her fins look rough but she seems so happy and full of life. I swear it's like they start yelling, "I'm free! I'm free!" when you let them out of their little prison. She's racing around the tank and having words with her reflection. So very cute. I might name her Annie.

    There was a little girl that was dying and she's haunting me. Part of me wishes I had got her.

    I was planning on getting something different, something I've never had before, but so far I've gone back to my old favs.

    I have decided to go with the bristle nose. This will be my second one and this time there will be no evil angel fish to kill it.

    I got my light today!! It's gorgeous and I love it! It's my first LED and I can't believe how thin and light weight it is. The tank is clean and I'll be preparing it today. Can't wait to get my bristle nose and fishies!

    Yes, it's in the bed room. I definitely want plants but I've also got to have some fin friends in there. I have insomnia and I'm looking forward to sitting by the tank at night before bed. I do that with the big tanks but having one in the quietness of the bed room will be awesome. I've killed every plant that I've ever bought, or the fish has. I'm going to try it again though.

    Agreed with the most relaxing tank. Once it is established, there is very little work to do on a planted tank.

    What a gorgeous tank!
    Thank you Beth. I am very proud of this tank. It has gone through a lot of changes. It's the oldest tank I have. the lights are 1 wal-E world 10g hood cut to fit. and a another 10g light. So it has 4 mini fluorescent bulbs that give 600 lumens in a full spectrum. Even I don't under stand all that. The point I was trying to make, is 4 wal-mart bulbs. They aren't high $$$'s. So your 10g should do great with just two.

    I just saw 5 celestial pearl danios online for about $30.

    Good night, I'm going to bed.

    What a gorgeous tank! I'm thinking since the rubber lip plec likes cooler water that maybe I should go with bristle nose. I had one before that my angel fish at the time killed.

    Thanks morph. Back then there were 4 types of plants in the tank. Now there are 13 types. Never thought it would look as good as it does.
