Just got a betta

[fuman_chica]

Hey everyone. I just bought a male betta, and I was wondering if it is okay to go in my 10 gallon tank with my 3 mollies and my 2 African dwarf frogs. Does anyone know?

There is room if you do the inch per gallon thing. I just wonder if they will get along okay. I know that not all fish are the same, and even if most are okay there is a chance of them not getting along, but I wondered if most do get along okay.

So if anyone could let me know, it would be much a preciated. Thanks!!

Oh, and should I quarantine him for a week like I did with my mollies? Or is it okay to just get him adjusted to the temperture of the main tank and then put him in?

Thanks again!!

there shouldnt be a problem putting him in with them in my opinion. Hopefully someone will be able to just confirm this.

Just check to make sure the betta isn't being got at by your male molly - they can be a little rough on other fish, and despite the "Fighting Fish" name, bettas are more likely the victims than the aggressors.
