One betta fish in tank will support the 5 plants. Can plant seeds provided or use starter plants ( must wash all dirt from roots)

The general rule for fish is one gallon of water for each inch of fish. So in this case one three inch fish, 3 one inch fish, etc. However, smaller fish will grow so one bigger fish is recommended which is why everyone says a betta. You CANNOT put more than one beta fish in the tank because they will kill each other (in case you were thinking of getting a couple smaller bettas). Betta's also dont need overly aerated water, which is why they are okay in a stagnate water bowl as apposed to an actual tank. You could try the guppies as someone else recommended but they arent very hardy so I would just stick with the betta. The general rule for fish is one gallon of water for each inch of fish.

One fish, a betta is the best choice. It's too small for more, even if small. Most small fish are schooling species and should be in groups too numerous for a three gallon tank and are also fast moving and reactive. A few (maybe 3) male guppies are possible, females get larger and are forever reproducing. Lack of enough nutrients for the plants is unlikely to be a problem, usually the opposite occurs resulting in algae or water quality issues.

Depending on how big they are, sea of green -+100. Medium plants around 32. Big plants around 8

I would start off with 1/4 teaspoon per gallon; however, there are a multitude of other questions that need to answered. What is your ppm target? EC target? How often do you refill your reservoir? Is your water temperature optimum? Is your water temperature constant or does it fluctuate a lot? Remember you are adding salts, so don't over do it or over apply. When I was growing, I would add 1/4 teaspoon per gallon of water and feed my plants approx. 1/2 gallon of the solution(along with other additives added to the solution) once a week. Ok to use with most greens I would imagine.

Depends on how you have the tank planted as well as the bioload. You could go with no bio filtering with enough plants. Sorry I can't give a more definite answer.

mix 1-2 tablespoons per gallon of water and then water as you normally would when needed. I used the kelp on new seedlings just when they emerged, worked great.

Filter is so good, I wouldn't worry. Maybe 100 for future change to larger tank. Gold fish don't have stomachs, I've been told, so I have lots of nye grass and othet consumable plants. Thus I feed my gold fish about once a week. Huge, 30 gal tank, cheep filter , but secrete is lots of plants.

No, I just bought 3 and the shipping was per plant. A bit disappointing since they all came in 1 box.

Yeah it's two teaspoons per gallon or two dropper fulls worth comes out same. So I'd recommend a miracle grow outdoor plant food that has a platic mixer that hooks up to your hose, cheapest way to go for the long run if your doing a garden or outdoor house bushes. This is fine for one or two bushes to be fertilized one a month. But will go quick, great for house plants though, and you can try it once and see if you see results. Good Luck Hope I Helped

I would go with 2. Depending on what you are growing as to what color temperature. I had the best results using one cool white and one warm white and rotating the plants around every 3 - 4 days. Great product for the price!!

The product says it's safe for plants and fish. I use it in my pond which has both plants and fish and I treat my pond twice a year just to be on the safe side. I haven't lost any plants or fish due to the use of this product. Hope this answers your question.

Hi Stanley. We love our tank for my 12 year old son. The general rule for fish to gallons of water is 1 inch of fish : 1 gallon of water in tank. Hope this is helpful.

1 fish per gallon so for a 10 gallon, I would have no more than 10 fish in a 10 gallon tank.

That certainly depends on several variables (ie. how many plants, what type of medium, why type of plant and area available, weather/climate conditions, etc); however, I've been growing two plants at a time (all year round under lights) and finished a box in about 6 months using the schedule printed on the box. I've since opted for the larger bottle sizes to save a few pennies in the long run.

We have not set it up yet because it is a birthday gift for my son. However I have talked to pet store people and they say you can put 1 inch of fish per gallon....so if it is a 5 gallon tank you can put 5 inches of fish. Then you could have 2 2.5 inch fish or about 6 fish that are 3/4 an inch. I hope this helps

Ah, now that depends on the kind of plant and how big it will get. If you do a web search for the product and go to the GrowBox home page, it tells you how many of various kinds of plants you can fit in one box. Smaller herbs and whatnot can usually number over a dozen, but some larger plants, like eggplants and tomatoes, are going to be down to 2-4.

You may still need to add macro fertilizers depending on your fish load and the types of plants and there requirements. A "low tech tank" will most likely not need much additional, a high light tank will need macro nutrients.

one ounce per gallon of water for new/recently planted plants, and potted plants. two ounces per gallon of water for well established plants/trees
