Lincoln

[dakski]

Thanks for the info! I love learning about animal care. That water does look pristine. Are there different species of beta? Or are they all the same just different colors?

I do not have a thread... I have a fairly new 20 gallon with 2 clowns and some inverts. I had a tank 10 years ago but had to get rid of it because of school. I'm finally in a place to keep fish again. I plan to eventually add a yellow clown goby and a royal gramma. The only difficult part is having patience and controlling pests that come with live rock. A setup like this is pretty simple to care for. Do water changes, feed fish, let snails eat algae. I could have used dry rock if I wanted it to be even easier. I don't have corals and probably won't add any. As beautiful as they are, their needs are too expensive and time consuming for my tastes. I'm starting to see coralline algae growth. I can't wait for it to takeover and turn all the rocks purple.

First, the tank looks good partly because I just set it up and put Lincoln in.

However, with one fish and good filtration, it should stay pretty clear indefinitely.

There are different morphs of Bettas. No idea what Lincoln's morph is, but he's a cool guy. Some have longer fins and different colors, etc.

This site above had some cool info.

Secondly, I like your setup and LOVE Goby's. They are awesome little fish! I don't know what a Gramma is.

Keep us posted on your tank!
