Hi Tom, Thank you!
I would like to add a fish or two in with him. He seems lonely after leaving the community tank he was in. He didnt bother the mollies or the platys but not sure if this would change since he no longer has the dwarf gourami to chase around anymore. Any suggestions on what kind of fish would be compatible with him in a ten gal tank? I personally love the barbs. would that work?
thanks ,kate
thanks Tom,
I thought of moving the three male platys that I have in the 29g over to the 10g with him. That would leave in the 29g for now, 1 female dwarf gourami, 2 female platy, 2 female mollies. But guess I better wait on the cycling process in the 10 before I do.
cool tank.. i love the way you set up the 'palace' in his palace.
Corys or otos would probably get along great with him, especially corys - the friend we had to give some of our corys to told me today that her female betta has become real friendly with them and even sleeps beside one at night.

Very tool betta tank! I'm sure your Betta loves it (remember when it was sitting in 1/2 cup of water in that heartless fish store?)
Yes,, Isabella..
Its a very sad thing indeed. And to think.. these poor male bettas have been 'alone' since birth! My guy seems to be very happy and adjusted in his new home, after I took him out of the community 29g tank. I am hard pressed to want to get another fish for him. One reason for company and the stimulation. Im hoping he is not too bored. So maybe two cory cats at some point for company. For now he is the king of his castle.
I have a betta in with danios, and for a while cory cats, but now 3 ottos. The betta completely ignores and is slightly slower than his tankmates so they all get on fine.
Strangely, it is my one little feeder guppy that is the big ole bully!

lovely lovely tank!
danios are pretty cute lil guys! But wow.. they sure can swim around a tank fast eh?? lol.. Cory cats are ok.. but the ones at the LFS just dont strike me as what it is im looking for. i wish we had a better selection at the LFS of corys. I know there are some kewl ones out there!

Yea, there are some great corys and they really can be playful little fish to watch plus very hard working at cleaning. http://planetcatfish.com/core/ is a good place to find cory cat info.
g'morning!
thank you... I will check out that site for more info on the corys. I will have to look at them alittle closer at the LFS. I really would like at least another fish, so with the corycats, I guess I can do 2 in the 10g with the betta. But wouldnt want more than that in there.
Im going to the store today its about a 50+ mile round trip for me, so cant go as often as I would like. But.. going for the master tester!! YEA! cant wait.
My favorite shopping store heheh...
The water in the 29 has cleared up and is crystal clear! The fish are all doing fantastic. the nitrate reading was just under 20 and the nitrite was almost at zero.Still doing regular water changes. Ph is always at 6.5 I cant wait for the true test with the master kit. That will tell the whole story!
