guest pw is "wootwoot" without quotations, but you guys can keep that to yourselves, or not, tis only fish, but yeah, everyone is happy, and that betta is starting to eat the tetra food

my Betta gets along with fish as long as the fish leave him alone.

I reccomed Cory Cats :)

Bettas can freak at any moment. The petstore was right, bettas shouldn't be put with other fish (it turned out suckish for me each time).

yes, i plan on getting corys when i come back, and also, i think my betta and one of my tetras has fin rot. The bettas fins aren't damaged, but the very ends of them seem to have less color and the two dangly things that i believe it uses to kill females with has white on the ends of them, i hope that isn't that cotton disease or something. the rest of the fins on all the fish seem fine, and there is no wierd behavior except for one of my silver mollys, it keeps going up and down nonstop every now and then, maybe its bored? i dunno. i just hope my betta or tetra doesn't have finrot, and that none of them get crazy ass diseases while im gone. the water is new and has been treated, so i think it should last disease free for a while. i'm not sure if the current cause up top by the bubble bar may be causing any of the fish stress

[Randa Betta]

yup, fukking fin rot, ughhhhhh, gonna say its due to stress from the "social" aspect of the fishes lives, maybe 16 fish is a bit too much, but i still think my air pump is too strong, even though it is within the 20 gallon range, i guess i will go swap it for a weaker one with my friend, that is, if anyone here can attest to a slight current causing stress?

hmmmm, maybe the betta doesn't have fin rot. this isn't him, but, http://www.bettafish.name/Betta_Fish.jpg, that's pretty much exactly what i was describing

The only thing males use to kill other bettas are their mouths. That's just natural coloring so it's not cotton :)
