Question .......?

[kooshty-dude]

hi people i havnt got a betta but i was wondering on getting one but i dont know if they are going to attack my fish or vis versa so do you people think it would be a good idea or not?

so could you lot help me please

 

[lilfishie]

bettas are solitary fish and prefer to live alone, i have a male in a 2.5 gallon and he loves it, the only fish i have had heard bettas getting on with is cories (sometimes) and ottos

 

[archamfr]

cories in my experiance are fine with fighters, however this is just about the only other kinda fish that is, ideally keep a fighter by himself

Wouldnt trust one with the fish in your signature

 

[mommyof2bettas]

Nope, he would be either attacked or he'd attack the others.

okay thank that is alrigth then coz i can have him in the tank i have already because i have got a new 3 foot tank what i can put my current fish in then most proberbly if i feel like it get a betta

the only fish in your signature i would trust a betta with is the pleccos. i have a male veiled black mollie with a hole in his tail from when i had to breifly house a betta in my community tank

I must have been extremely lucky, I had a betta a few years back and he was in a community tank with all different kinds of fish, he seemed pretty happy in there, apart from he use to flare at me if I decided to have a good nose into the tank. I have to admit at the time I didn't know an awful lot about bettas and the lfs didn't really inform us to well about what not to house him with, I think they were probably just happy to get rid of a fish to be honest.
