Hey Guys,
The dalmatian molly died today. Thinking of a replacement (NO MOLLIES OR CATFISH!) I was thinking of a betta, a platy, or someother small peaceful fish. R.I.P Diedric

Heeeellllloooooo?

I think everyone is between work and home right now. I'm sorry about your fishie but I just keep one betta, so I have no good advice.

I would definately NOT! get a betta for your tank. They do not get along with the type of fish that you have in your tank. Platys are nice. or Neon tetras.

A Dwarf Gourami would be nice, and they sort of have the "betta" look. I have a DG in my 29g with my female mollies.

Sorry Chase, didn't see your post. Sometimes you have to be a bit patient.
I agree, no betta for the tank. Most Bettas don't do well in community tanks. You could wake up one day and find someone hurt or dead.

i'm sorry you lost your mollie

Chase J

Not allowed I already asked

Blub

Not a Betta, as everyone has said. What about a Bolivian ram?

PS. just to make reading your aquarium info easier, I'd just list the species of fish, not the individual colour varietys. It can be a bit confusing trying to add together all the strains to see what numbers of that species people acctualy have.

Lucy

Not allowed what? A DG? Are there certain fish you're allowed to have and not have?

Chase J

Well We Got Soem Powder Blues And My First Mollies Like Attacked Them. I Do Wish I Could Get One THough. I Think I'll Ask about that. Then I just need one more barb to have a happy shoal. But i Mean the mollies were agressive to every fish i had in there so it shouldnt be a problem. KK heres the plan 1 molly 2 swordtails 1 DG 4 cherry barbs and 2 platys.? OSund good?

Blub

Sounds overstocked... I wouldn't include 1 of the large livebearers (Molly or sword) and DG, so not to overstock.

Chase J

K well i got two small female platys and there not doing anything

Blub

Even if they're not doing much, they're cntributing towards the bio-load.
