Planting bulbs in your freshwater aquarium can turn it into a stunning, blooming underwater garden. With the right selection, preparation, and care, bulbs like Red Tiger Lotus or Madagascar Lace can thrive, adding vibrant colors and unique textures to your tank.

Designing a tank for your Halfmoon Betta is all about balance—creating a space where they can thrive and look stunning. Opt for a 5-10 gallon rectangular tank, maintain water at 75-80°F, and include live plants like Anubias or Java ferns.

Weekly testing and gradual adjustments can keep your tank healthy, allowing fish and plants to flourish in harmony.

Indian Almond Leaves (IALs) are a natural addition to your aquarium that can benefit Betta fish and other species by improving water quality, enhancing immunity, and reducing stress.

Rich in tannins, these leaves help soften water, lower pH, and mimic a natural environment. Ideal for Betta tanks, they also aid in breeding and fry care, making them a versatile tool for aquarists.
