Who Gives A Fish Forums

I've always found it frustrating when some YouTubers and websites claim that having a "clean up crew" means you can just sit back and let your fish or snails do all the work. It's misleading and makes it sound like you can just dump the responsibility on them, when in reality, it's just not that ...

I'm gonna have to disagree here, danios are quick, and I think they'd stress the betta. You're gonna get mixed views on this, but for me, I wouldn't risk it, even with a female betta.

tank room's at 80, AC keeps it at 72

I've got frogbit and another plant, not sure what it is, both are dying off pretty fast, is it fluxx?

I'd like to add that as a newcomer to the world of aquariums, it's not always easy to distinguish between good and bad content. It seems to me that some YouTubers take advantage of this lack of knowledge. I've started watching videos on aquarium builds and I find them really calming, but I make sure ...
