How to stop bettas from eating shrimp

Beautiful. Copper smaragdina?

Yes sir

The Golden Algae eater is the best algae eater.
Two of them managed to clean my whole tank free from algae within two days.

But the only problem is this fish like to suck the slime of bigger fish. My big Geophagus is afraid of them.

My betta is a monster, he literally eats or attacks anything that goes into his tank. I added 8 shrimp and he slowly picked them off...

Yes, Bettas usually have fighter and killer instincts.

The aquarium could be divided.

@Crispii It could be but they can still smell the pheromones of the other fish which puts stress on them. I had a divided tank and don’t recommend them any longer.
