12 new female bettas!

I acclimated them to my 120 gallon a few hours ago and they all hung out in the corners of the tank for awhile and then started swimming around and flaring at everyone.

But I have this fake plant in one corner and avout 6 of them are wedged in it. I am scared they will get stuck down there and not be able to get to the surface for air. Whenever I put my hand in there to see if they really are stuck, they all scatter and can easily get out. I would just feel terrible if they got stuck down in the plant. Should I remove it or what?

They'll be okay.
I was horrified when I first brought Harvey home.
I had one of those crazy plastic spikey plants.
He had nested himself inside it, and I thought he had been skewered so I rushed over and shooed him away from there, and just scared the bajeezus out of him. He was just resting

I'd have to say they'll probably be just fine in there.

Yea it is one of those plastic plants that point up lol. I hope they'll be okay. I really need to get some more plants and hiding spots. I feel bad that like 7 of them are all trying to hide in one plant lol.

It looks like a female betta christmas tree! the bettas look like the ornaments.

Getting stuck? In a plant? They'll probably be alright.

Good luck
