Hey guys, sorry I've been gone for so long.
Amir and Horizon are doing great :)
Havn't got the time to breed them yet though :/

But anyway,
I'm thinking of setting Horizon up in a 10 gallon tank with some other fish.
I know not to put goldfish and the like in the tank. But I was wondering what would be good tankmates.

I've thought about guppies and maybe an african dwarf frog.
Should I not do that, or is that okay?

I'm doing so-so, you? :)

As a half-way sorta answer, I think an ADF would be okay, but I'm thinking it depends more on your bettas temperament. I've heard of bettas getting along with mollies, platys, guppies, neons, ect. ect. and being just fine, then I've heard of bettas killing everything in sight, without a second thought.

I have my females in with only other females a total of 6 in a 10 gallon tank. You could always do that. I have had a single male in with Fancy Tail Guppys, Neon Tetras, Glofish, Platys, Swordtails, and Otos, and Corys and never had a problem. I also have 5 Females right now in a 44 gallon with the same types as the above as well as Harliquin Rasboras.

I have a cousin named Amir. :p

I think females should be okay with guppies...and ADFs are fine, as long as you make sure they're eating.
