  1. Betta Fish Care
    Okay, I'm brand new here, coming for help, so I apologize if I'm doing anything wrong! Background: I have had two female bettas, but they've both been in 1-2ish gallons (I didn't have any other options at the time). Now, however, I was able to put up a divider into my 10gal tank and give them...
  2. Betta Fish Compatibility
    So my Betta has developed a problem with tail biting, and I am trying desperately to correct it. I figured I would give a tank mate a shot because I heard those can help, but I never intended to have more than a Betta when I set up my tank. It is only 5 gallons and is consistently at 79-80...

    hi :) I've wanted to keep bettas for AGES but was put off till recently due to the "fragile" reputation ive grown up hearing about. I have a thoroughly planted 20 gallon tank which currently houses 2 khuli loaches (i intend to get more, i read they prefer groups of 5+) as well as my little...

    I recently acquired a 20 gallon planted tank with 6 neon tetras, 7 black neon tetras, 6 harlequin rasboras, and 4 cory catfish. The black neon tetras are pretty large and I am wondering if they would harm my betta. Can I add him to the tank for a little bit and see what they do? Or should I...

    How do I know new tankmates are good with each other? How do I know they're not stressing each other out? What behaviour should I be keeping an eye on? And how can I know it's going well? And also, should I take the fry out? Some background and further explanation for this: My Betta boy Ciel...
  6. Betta Fish Compatibility
    So I have an older male betta fish in his own separate tank currently, but I'm hoping to move him into my community tank that has two male mollies and a plato in it. The mollies seem like they're not aggressive even though they're both males, but they do chase each other often though there's no...

    I have a ten gallon betta sorority with four females. I don't know if this is a bad idea, but I wanted to add some other fish just to enhance the tank. If it is possible, What are some relatively inexpensive small fish I could add to my sorority? The tank has a heater (80°) and canister...

    Hey guys i have a 5 gallon tank that contains a male betta, ADF, and a mystery snail. Its the snails first day in tank and it has been in its shell all day. Once it finally comes out of its shell the betta fish would eventually nip at it and than it would hide in its shell again. How long should...

    I own a 5.8-5.9 gallon tank (says the aquarium calculator) and have a betta of course. I'd like to get him some kind of tank mate that will stay toward the bottom. I've considered ghost shrimp, glass catfish, or possibly a snail since I've heard of many betta owners also having snails in the...
  12. Betta Fish Compatibility
    I have been thinking about this subject for a long time. I just recently purchased a 5 gallon tank. And I was trying to find a suitable tank mate for my betta. At first I wanted a snail. I thought that they would take care of algae (I've had many problems with it in a past tank). I almost went...

    Hey!!! I have a 10 gallon tank but only my cute Betta Lawrence is living there! I'm sure it would look much nicer with some more fish... I was thinking about a sucker fish or maybe some neon tetras... Anyone out there have any thing to say about this? Will Lawrence be ok with these guys or...
