Want to get another betta

[Durbkat]

I currently have 2 bettas. One in a 2.5g tank and one in a 1/2g fish bowl. So do you all think I should get another one?

MBS strikes again!!

 

[Durbkat]

MBS means mulitible betta syndrom right? So I want to do you all think I should?

 

[Booboo puppy]

You're kidding, right? Do you honestly think anyone here would tell you "no"?

 

[Durbkat]

Alright I think I will.

I've you've got the space, get another betta. If you don't, sell your bed and get another betta.

I would upgrade your betta thats in the 1/2 gallon first, as that is too small for him (they need atleast 1 gallon).

Ok I have SEVERE MBS... I started with my first one about 2 months ago and up until 2 weeks ago I just had the one, then I bought another and 2 more and more.... Now I have 10! I had to give 3 away cause I had too many and I still have more water than I'm allowed to have in my dorm room!

Go for it--what the heck IT'S JUST ONE MORE FISH, I agree with getting a bigger tank than half gallon, if you can't afford the expensive tanks check out yard sales, grocery stores, SAMS WHOLESALE, ETC. imprevise---it works, spent 9.00 on 2 two gallon containers bought at SAMS, tomorrow is SATURDAY---YARD SALES and GARAGE SALES I have found 2-3 one gallon fish bowls a few weeks ago spent something like a dollar for both----LOVE sales, hate to spend money!

I agree, betta are inexpensive. Once you have the supplies for one you can easily add to your collection. Why not? I too agree that the 1/2 gallon should be upgraded.

Don't spend any money on another fish, because she need the money to upgrade that 1/2 gallon bowl. I think 1 gallon is too small, and a half gallon is just cruel. Your money is better spent right now. When you get a bigger tank, and then have money for a third tank, then go get yourself one.

 

[Durbkat]

Keddypie I'm a guy not a girl. And I would upgrade but don't have room for anything bigger than 1/2g and this betta seems to love it because he swims around more, he stopped biting his fins, he has started building a bubble nest, and he flares at his reflection.

i agree with this as well. don't get more fish when you can't provide for the ones you have. now that i know you are keeping them in 1/2 gallons, even if i had a slightly deformed fish like you asked about, i still would not give him to you. i'm picky about where the fish i sell/give away go...i'm not sending them away to live in a too-small home.

 

[Durbkat]

I was only joking guys, chill out. This betta thats in the 1/2g is only thier until his fins heal then he will go to my 1g. And supersixone you don't have to discriminte me just because I'm not like you all that has these 20g tanks for a single betta. I'm not really living the life of luxuiry.

I apologise for the gender confusion.

Also, if you don't have room for one 1 gallon tank, then you don't have room for 2 1/2 gallons... Or for two 2 gallons, which is what you minimally should have
