I have one of the little square flat heaters that are rated (yeah on the box, but it all depends) for about a 10 gallon tank. It seems to work well enough so far, the house temp is set it the high 70’s (usually 75 ish) and it keeps the tank temp […]
ok so since you helped me identify the limpets (all now named “the incredible mr.”, I don’t think anyone older than me will miss the reference, but my hubby didn’t get it sooo… who knows) maybe you can help me with this. I rescued two bettas from walmart (yes I know not […]
I was thinking the same thing, they have to kept seperate from other male betta’s but can be put in with other fish.

I have 2 angels, and 3 crowntail bettas (1 male 1 females) all together with numerous other semi-agressive fish in the same tank and they’ve left each other alone. In a 35 gallon tank it should be alright as long as there’s enough hiding places/plants. To distract the betta […]
I have always put my betta in tanks with other fish. They are shy toward fisht that arent bettas. Its like a pit bull. All fish have there own personality and it cant be based on breed.
I would not put a betta into the environment that you currently have. Both the guppies and the angel may have fun with the long flowing fins of a betta.
A single male betta may be kept in a community tank. For the most part the aggression of bettas is conspecifics, in other words, they are […]
The angelfish will end up picking the bettas fins and the betta will pick at the guppies fins. How big of an angel is it by chance? I’ve had angels in community tanks until the got about 2 to 3 inches accross then they start to get aggressive. Sent via BlackBerry from T-Mobile
Male Bettas do not need to be kept alone but do not usually do well with other male Bettas or with other fancy fish with long finnage… a/k/a the angelfish. Male Bettas seem to like to be the prettiest fish in the tank. Go to my blog and on the right side under “Labels”, […]
Well, he’s got plenty of room that’s for sure. They like lots of plants (live or silk preferred for the sake of their fins). Have you tried different food? I’ve heard they often don’t like flakes, and they definitely can be finicky. I use two different brands of pellets (Hikari and HGH) and mine gobbles […]
> Some info on the tanks would be great - what size, are they heated/filtered, how often is the water changed…
Well, the betta that doesn’t move around much is in a 5 gallon hexagon tank…no plants (fake or real) at the moment…a sunken ship, filter, light, and bubbles. He gets his tank […]
