Angels

wont my betta attack the angels???? i read somewhere that they might cause conflict?

[JMeenen]

mine don't...I think they arre used to each other...you might want to be carful about putting in Angels..Tetras are pretty non threatening and they come in many colors.

tetras have a reputation for fin nipping... and a betta has long fins sooo there could be a problem there.

especially since bettas are very slow swimmers so he will be a sitting duck to the fin nipping 8) maybe try some platys, thats what im doing.

I have never had a problem with that and I have had tham al together for over a year now...so I would think it would have happened by now............

Angels will NOT fit in a 10 gallon tank. Remember the tank size when recommending tank mates guys!

I'd recommend some bottom dwellers. A shoal of cories would look very nice, and they won't bug the betta (nor will he bug them).

cool ill get about 3 cories 2morrow, and 2 ottos, and possibly a mystery snail do u think thts to crowded?
