20 gallon:
8 young mollies (product of my unfortunate pregnant birthday present)
1 strawberry tetra
1 pleco

35 gallon:
1 pleco at the mo'

next week I'm going "fishing" for orandas and ryukins for that tank.

Question:
I noticed that Aqueous has a betta along with some neon tetras as well as other things.. I always heard that tetras would nip at the bettas fins... do they do this in your tank Aqueous?

I was planning to get some neons after my mollies are all gone and I really wanted a betta too, but I heard that they cant be put together. Is that true?

Nice tank.... I'm impressed that it's still sealed.
I had a 50 gallon in that style forever (it was my dad's back in his days) but it got to leaking all the time and I had to give it up. Plus moving that beast was a back breaker.

I went ahead and added some fresh silicone over the old stuff (looks more like tar/pitch than silicone) just to be on the safe side. I've had it set up for a few weeks now as a quarantine tank and still haven't had any leaks. Because of it's odd dimensions (14 x 8 ), I had to have glass specially cut for the top and I'm making the light fixture myself. When I'm done using it for quarantine, I'm going to put a divider in it, add a bunch of plants (including a moss wall) and move my 2 bettas and 4 pygmy cories into it.

What type of goldfish are in your 75? Is that just a temporary set up, or is it supposed to be their permanant home? Even if they're the smaller, fancy goldfish, 18 is an awful lot for a 75 gallon.
