Also I checked the temperature that these fish all like and...

    Female Betta Community Question

      That's a shame, was very hopeful I could get 4 Betta's in. The Rummys do school and have been in the tank for 6months, would rather not rehome them if possible.   Thank You for your advice.

    First Betta Arrived

    He is awesome, loving watching him swim round his tank. He is enjoying swimming round and through the ornaments and plants. He slept under the log ornament, I was worried he was going to get stuck but he knew what he was doing. Came straight to see me this morning when he saw me watching him.
