TANK UPDATE:
Sorry for not posting for awhile, I’ve gotten discouraged on the whole fish-keeping thing so I just haven’t felt the desire to post anything until now. So the first picture is the tank right after Ren had died. Then I went up to see my girlfriend and bought $70 worth of plants and plant care. I got the stones from a youtuber, Lifewithpets, and if you want those stones I’ll leave the link to their website. I’ve grown to strongly despise algae. I’m pretty sure my tank has been going through the Nitrogen cycle again and that’s been awful. I tested my water levels yesterday or the day before and they were honestly horrendous. I’ve had to change the water in my tank twice or more a week and I’m really trying to limit myself to do only two water changes a week. I know too many water changes can kill my fish or at least harm them but my water has been awful. I’m going to look into getting a feeding dish and some activated carbon and zeolite crystals to hopefully help with my water levels. I plant on getting more plants eventually and a few more fish but so far this is what I have.
