Unfiltered 4 gallon aquarium for female betta & friends?
I am in the process of setting up a 4 gallon aquarium, but I have been thinking about getting a female betta & ghost shrimp 2 . That leaves each ghost shrimp 1 gallon and the betta fish 2 gallons. It is actually a 5 gallon tank, but the water level would reach to 4 gallons. It would be unfiltered, but I would do daily water changes with 100 percent change every weekend. There will be a heater My question is, would that be okay for the ghost shrimp? I read they need filtered water, but since these creatures don't produce a ton of waste The tank will be cycled first before getting them and i'd have an air pump in the water, and enough hiding places, would this be safe enough for them?Thanks Yea, I forgot that 100 percent can rid the tank of healthy bacteria. I'd just do 75 percent instead of 100. I was going to use the air pump for the ghost shrimp because I read they need that to breathe well enough. Thank you for correcting me on the water change. okay....
