I want a sorority tank!!

An all female tank would be amazing! My Kairi is so fun-filled i would love to have that doubled or tripled... or more...

Nice fish, cool tanks! Got any names for them?

Nice tanks and adorable fish. I don't know how long you've had the sorority set up for but I would definetly keep a close eye out for any agression. If it looks like a fish is getting picked on make sure you sort it out quickly before it becomes a major problem.

I love the girls.

I am keeping a really close eye on the ladies!!! They have been in there for about a month. So far they there has been no fin nipping or chasing. I think the only thing that might have made them work is the fact that they were all really little when I got them, and none of them were in great health. In case anything should happen I have three dividers and a 25 gallon that they could all go into! If everything stays peaceful they will all go into that over the summer so that they can have more room.

Your girls are so pretty. I'm glad you're keeping your eyes on them. I'd hate to see something happen to such pretty girls.
The first blue one seems to be showing a bit of a stress line.

Coloring can be weird- now that's he done coloring out, it's become apparent that my male betta has a stripe just as part of his coloring. His body starts blue-brown at his dorsal and purple at his anal, and there are horizontal stripes of color between the transition. I've seen his stress stripes, and they look very different.

It could just be part of her coloring.

Anyway, your new boy looks exactly like my Sir Elton. They look like twinnies, except yours has a smoother color transition XD

I thought those were stress stripes on her too. And then when I did a water change the first time, her TRUE stress stripes showed up. I am starting to wonder if those stripes aren't just part of her normal coloring. When she is stressed, she turns brown and the stripes go from her head all the way to her tail.
