Default New Additions

Ok so here are the newest additions to my house I had to move Rebel into the 30G tank as she was being chased in the other tank (I am currently looking for a bigger tank for her) and I wanted something colorful to accompany her but I didn't want too much nor a high maintaince tank. The other things that I had to consider is a fish that she wouldn't eat and a fish that would chase her. So I decided to go with Female Bettas. This way I can have a few, have the colors and I'm safe every other way

Sry for the pic quality I didnt know my glass was so dirty. Also in the time that it took me to get them and stop at walmart real quick and get them home one tore up the other two. But they now seem fine and I will get better pics after they heal. I just couldnt wait to share



And the 'boss' who has now become shy


My plan is to add 2 more and thats it. I want a couple of blue ones.

Female bettas are best kept in groups of 6+ or singles, kind of like tiger barbs. The more of them there are, the less they will fight. You can find some pretty cool looking ones at the lfs if you look hard enough. I've seen quite a few white ones with red fins, and some green and blue ones occasionally. Good choices though Jess

they should actually have a heated tank- they are very unhappily kept in unheated, unfltered containers.
