    Tank Mates

    I have a very aggressive male betta. Tried putting him with other fish and had to separate them, as he went on assualt. I did however have success with a dwarf pleco. It was like 2 days before he even SAW the pleco... I know he sensed something else in the tank, scented it or whatever, and...

    Betta Vs Betta Splendens

    thank you for clarifying, as far as the pleco, LFS, and a few others, told me plecos have tough armour and the betta really can't hurt it, plus they are super fast, and have little barbs to protect themselves. He attacked a few platty fish previosly in the tank... so i was very leary...
