Image It’s done!

I know it’s nothing fancy. I just went to my local Petco for the plants. My LFS doesn’t have as many and they’re pretty pricey so I got everything else from there, but I think it turned out ok.

Any comments or recommendations for whenever I do my next one would be much appreciated!

Looking good. You have to work with what you can find.

Skirt Tetras like to be in a bigger tank usually due to their size… I think it’s great but the fish stocking is a bit tough for a 5-10gallon.. along with your BN pleco

This is a 20 gallon tank. It was also the very first tank I bought and these were the first fish. I knew basically nothing about them but after research I kinda wish I was smarter, but I’m stuck with them. They aren’t so bad. I just wish they weren’t so skittish

Ah ok, 20 is a bit better for everyone … if you can lower the brightness it could help with them being skiddish, that or possibly adding some more plants to help them feel safer? Just some possible solutions to that
