    Fighter with other fish??

    When I was thinking of setting up a tank I thought I would like some bottom feeders and a beta -I was going to leave at that but a pet shop lady suggested Neon Tetras so I got them. Then tonight other people suggested about Catfish liking a faster current than Betas and Neons ~it's so...

    Fighter with other fish??

    Thanks for the advice about the plants!! I can't paint the back as its not really my tank. About the light it's not often on because I got told from the pet shop that I was giving my plants too much light so I turn it on 2-4 hours a day. Do those plant need the light?? I so want to keep my...

    Fighter with other fish??

    Would the pet shop take them back?? What plants would you suggest?? I originally wanted a green covering for the back wall but the baby tears aren't doing the job and also possibly dying. I have flourish tabs in my tank but it didn't change the plants much with it!

    Fighter with other fish??

    Fighter with other fish??

    Thanks for the feedback!! Do you think I need more plant coverage for the other fish if I do add a beta?? And any recommendations to what?? My plants aren't doing so well, I think the baby tears are dying from the roots up...

    Fighter with other fish??

    I'm a novice so why am I pushing my limits with my catfish?? And why is it not fair to the beta -tell me more!! I told the pet shop I wanted catfish and a beta. They suggested the tetras and also 2 catfish rather than one. I'm a novice, I don't really know what I'm doing that's why I'm asking...

    Fighter with other fish??

    Just wondering if anyone had put a fighter in with any other fish before and how did it go?? I have a 34L tank with 6 Neon Tetras and 2 Borneo Catfish. A friend came over last night to visit and was very sceptical that my other fish would survive with a fighter and if it was possible I would...
