Well, it was funny, but I suspect the original poster wasn't completely joking --- a filterless tank will need water changes frequently. If I were going to do it, I'd shoot for daily changes. Lots of people do fewer if they keep only a single male betta, and they do ok, but I've rarely seen them do well. I've seen plenty of them dying from terrible dropsy and bacterial infections. Works for me. I only feed live food though, mosrly white worms and a few fruit flies. I've had filterless tanks set up for years. A 2 gallon tank with half a dozen small tetras, plants (crypts) and barely any light - certianly ni hood/reflector/canopy is needed will need a 50% water changes once a week, just like a high tech tank. But it's no harded to kep clean if you're careful with the food. That is the key to clean water. -- Need Mercedes parts ? - http://parts.mbz.org http://www.mbz.org | Mercedes Mailing lists: http://lists.mbz.org 633CSi 250SE/C 300SD | Killies, killi.net, Crypts, aquaria.net 1970 280SE, 72 280SE | Old wris****ches http://watches.list.mbz.org |
