My first ever planted tank

[Aalok bairwa]

Here there guys , this is my first planted tank , i want to see my betta happy so I renovate the whole tank I removed the tank lid so that it look good ( my water level is low so that betta don't jump and came out of tank) , it's around a month of establishment,, i don't have the Amazon planted soil so I use organic fertilizer and garden soil (washed) and over them spread sand layer ,, also I build a diy co2 system so that my plants go well also I got little pearling in my too .

i was wondering if I can get a mate for my betta so today I bought 2 mystrey snail , so let me know if they works with betta or suggest me other mates

Looks good! In a tank that size, a betta likely won’t tolerate anything other than snails.

Splendens don't pair well it's a temporary arrangement. The aquarium is rather small but if you keep on top of the maintenance and your male allows it perhaps you could try a small group of chilli rasbora, phoenix if you can find them, emeralds or similar. A small number of 4 or so may be a nice addition. Tucano tetra would get my vote

Thanks for advice but my betta is way too agressive and big I tried once with neon tetras but whenever I watch my tank the betta is flaring and always try to catch them so I removed ,, yesterday I tried mystrey snail ,, initially betta tried to bully them and hit there antenna but after some time snail roaring on glass and substrate and betta loose it's interest in them and staying at surface,,,





Also many people and shopkepper that I talked suggest me shrimps with betta also . But I don't know which go well with betta

You can try neocardina (cherry) shrimp with the betta - there’s mixed results with them being compatible. It really depends on the betta.
Ghost shrimp may work better, but don’t breed as readily (or fast) as cherry shrimp do.

Looks good, I’ve been keeping fish of nearly every type since the 80s and have grown corals without issues but for some reason, I have zero luck with plants lol
As far as tankmates, the only thing that might work would be some type of nano bottom dweller that’s not overly active
