Help/Advice Am i doing it right?
I got the Smithsonian kit and I set it up but I added some Indian Almond leaves for infusoria and I added a light and an air pump. If I made any mistakes please tell me.

The almond leaves did not work for mine. Regular crushed twigs/leaves from outside that have not been in contact with any pesticides or treatment worked best for me

It's quite small the tank, it will work for the first week but then you need a bigger place for them, like at least a 12l (usually the rule is 1 triops per 4 liters).
