I traded some plants, left with rotala and ludwigia that I didn't have before. and I accidentally bought some rocket killi fish. oops. They're in with the betta now, may go in the 5 if I think she is too agro for them.

Those accidental buys happen. Try not to beat yourself up too much over it. If you should be feeling the guilt, I can sometimes be a compassionate counselor. Sometimes.

BTW - have we seen this betta you speak of?

"Accidentally".

I slipped, I promise. At least I didn't come home with a bunch of turkana's too. That would require filling and scaping the empty 40.

I don't know what happened. One minute I'm packing up, the next I have fish in a bag.

I agree. His comment was only 2/3rds about me. Nevertheless, I’m good enough, smart enough and, dog gone it, people like me.

Yeah I love my acrylic 90 Discus tank. Until it needs cleaning. I get 90% done with one of those magnetic scrapers. The rest on the outside I use a damp fluffy cleaning cloth.

I wasn't getting anywhere with the magnetic scraper. You can see what it was like at the bottom of the tank. I still have dog nose prints to take care of though. He likes to snap at the fishes, especially the tang. they don't care either way.

Is that a Marlboro Red or...?

Orange Melon. Developed the melanistic coloring probably due to black backround and natural gravel substrate. I’m fine with it tho. I thin it looks neat. And healthy otherwise.
