Advice please!

So I got these guys last week and I have absolutely fallen in love they are my babies. I did lots of research cause eventually I would like to have a betta as the main fish in the tank however unfortunately I let the guy at the aquarium store convince me that I only needed two (I ended up getting three because two didn’t feel right). Should I be prioritising getting three more asap? I would love to hear everyone’s recommendations! Also they are always swimming around near my heater the tank is 26 degrees Celsius so they shouldn’t be cold right? I have been feeding them algae wafers and have tried blanched zucchini. I also am starting to add bacter ae to the tank. I cannot get my hands on repashy where I live so if you have any other suggestions that would be amazing! Tank is 60x30x35 and I had an already used filter to start cycling this tank but still cycled it and let it settle for three months before adding these guys. I just want to do what’s best for them!

NSW: Has anyone become a secondary English teacher without an Arts degree?

I’m in NSW and I’m hoping someone has been through something similar.

I’m studying a Bachelor of Commerce/Bachelor of Education (Secondary) at Macquarie. Originally I did a Law and Commerce degree but I got seriously burnt out and realised I loved my current job of English tutoring and wanted to continue pursuing that further.

I’ve been tutoring English for around five years and was applied for and received a NSW Department of Education scholarship for a future secondary English and History position. The Department knows I’m completing a Commerce/Education double degree.

Last year I discovered that NESA requires an English major for accreditation as an English teacher. When I asked someone at Macquarie, I was told my only option would be to restart my degree from scratch, which would mean throwing away almost four years of study.

Has anyone:
- completed extra English units after their degree?
- met the NESA English requirements another way?
- been in a similar situation at Macquarie or another NSW university?

Any advice would be much appreciated!
