Hi, all. I bought an existing set-up from someone who was moving. This is the tank's current specifications and stock.
Now, I know that the tetras do better with at least six of each other; I am willing to buy more of each (and I will buy another Glo-Fish, which apparently doesn't cause an issue with the bigger fish). However, even though all the denizens are currently getting along, I've been warned that they may end up not doing so forever. All the issues AQadvisor has with the tank would be fixed if I removed the various tetras; however, I don't have tanks to put them all in. One group could go into my Fluval Edge 12g with my male betta; one group may be able to go into my daughter's 10g with her male betta. One group will either have to stay in this tank, or I will have to somehow rehome them, or I will have to keep their school small and put them in with another betta in a 5g.
If it helps, I would also like to add a group of cory cats to this tank, once I get this issue sorted. I honestly love the way the tetras look, and they aren't currently causing issues, but I'm trying to be proactive, and I don't want to take the angelfish or albino rainbow shark out of this tank.
