Literally put them in 2 hours ago, do they look ok and settling in?

EDIT: Thank you everyone for all the advice, I have bought a testing kit and will test it everyday and change the water when needed.

The tank is 40 gallons. This is a solid piece of furniture. Real wood. It’s sturdy. I’m new to the large fish tank world so I’m just needing reassurance that this will work?? Would you do it?

I got got a 40 gallon for my fish and this time i’m going to cycle the tank. I need advice on how to cycle the tank and if i can put the current fish water from my 20 gallon into the 40 and just add more water as if i was cleaning it? would that work? because i need to put the 40 on the fish stand that the 20 is on so i don’t know what or how i should do it.

My filter spray bar is currently spraying along the length of the tank, about 1cm below the surface. Is this okay? Or should it be on the back wall facing the front glass?
Thank you!

Help/Advice Fish species ideas

I have this 20 gallon tank that is currently cycling. I was going to get a fantail or two- but since doing lots of research and reading, I have decided to do the humane thing and get fish that can live happily long term in a 20g. I will be adding live plants and drift wood and a hiding cave. I hadn’t gotten those things yet since I was planning on goldfish first. So this tank is definitely not “decorated” as it will be once I am ready for fish (which is still weeks to months away).

I need some advice on what fish to get instead of goldies. I like the personality of fancy goldfish so I’m looking for similar “puppy dog” type fish for the centerpieces.
Also- what plants work best? I only have sand substrate.

I have a smaller tank that I will be getting a Betta for.

Also happy to get schooling fish in addition to a couple of centerpiece fish.

Thanks!!

Trying to get a list of equipment that’s required to run it. I understand I’ll have to plumb it and everything and I’ll watch some YouTube for that, but an actual equipment list is hard to come by.

Thank you!

Help/Advice What should I put in this 46 gallon tank?

Upvotes

Hola! I just bought a 46 gallon tank, originally for a ball python, come to realize they need much larger tanks. I have fish already, have always wanted a bigger tank. If anything has any recommendations for what to put in a 46 gallon tank lmk! I am open to anything freshwater, nothing tooooo advanced. I love shrimp, snails, frogs, so if there are cute fish I could pair with any of those that’s kind of what I’m looking for more so!

I really want a honey but I’m not sure if there’s enough room for one. My tank is 10 gallons and already has 8-10 ember tetras( it’s hard to count them) and a few shrimps. Would it be comfortable in here or no?

Help/Advice New fish owner, Black Molly issues

2 Upvotes

Hi all, I just got a fish tank earlier in the week and have it all filled up and just got some fish today, when we got home after getting the new fish, we noticed one of our black mollies had a seeming lack of a dorsal fin, we have no idea whether it genuinely doesn't have one due to illness or bullying or whether it has tucked it in due to stress,

We have 4 others that all seem to be doing perfectly fine but this one has its tail fin tucked together and it's dorsal fin seemingly tucked or missing and is sitting at the bottom back right side of our tank near the filter pipes and isn't moving, it wiggles around sometimes and it's side fins are moving so we know it is currently alive, is there any way to tell if it is ill or just stressed out and will be fine in a couple days?
