About 8 years ago, we won a betta (I know...I know), that had been the centerpiece at a wedding. We brought it home, and I did the research, and found out that it would fit in nicely in my 30 gallon tropical tank with my platties. That betta loved it in there. Very active. I don't know how old it was when we got it, but we had it for 2 years. So...this past weekend, we won another one! It is beautiful! Mostly greens and blues. Well, I was hoping to put it in the 30 gallon again, but this time I have tetras in there...no go. We don't have another tank...not lots of money to spend, but I did go buy a 2 1/2 gallon setup, with filter and heater. I just have a few questions.
With such a small tank, should I get it some companions, once it's settled in?
At this house, we have well water...no chlorine. Is it necessary to condition the water?
Is there a way to tell males from females...similar to platties?
This new guy came in a larger vase than usual. We have set up the new tank, but it's not warm enough yet, and I want to let it all run overnight. I saw tonight that it had started a bubble nest...a good sign?
Thanks,
Erin
