Aquarium Plans

Initially, I had been planning to keep a bottle. I want to take my fish with me at the end of the year, so I figured that a bottle would be the easiest for me to transport. Since the fish would be provided for me, I was willing to take care of either a minnow or betta, but I was hoping for a betta since they are so beautiful. Bettas can survive in smaller spaces and are air breathers, so they do not need to be in a tank with a bubbler like most other fish do. A bottle limits the amount of room that is available for decorations, but it is important for me to have plants in the fish's environment in order to lower nitrate levels. I am planning on upgrading my fish to a larger tank once the project is over.
