How would you think a CFBN handle in there? I know it would need land part so yeah.


P.S Notice how bad the tank looks without the light on.:happy:
 
Is that an incandescent light? I would also get rid of the heater. Netws and heat does not mix. You wouldn't necessarily need a land area.
 
You may not technically need to have at least a small land area for it, but everything I've read said they will be much happier if you have one. I just set up a new tank for fire bellys and while they spend most of their time lounging on plants in water, they always spend a little time on the land also.

Even if it is a little rock coming out of the water. You could try putting a stick in there which leans into a corner as long as it is firm enough to not fall over. A small pot might work. A floating lillypad will work also.

Fire bellys like it cold, as said above, a heater is bad. Regular temperatures of 74 degrees or higher will kill them, stick closer to 70, or 66 or 67 if you can.
