Hey folks me again!

Well, we went out a brought a 2.5Gal Mini-bow as I really wanted a Betta NOW and it was extremely difficult to wait the cycling week but I managed! (Yay me!)

So, the betta is in there and is quite happy. I remember as a child we used to have a Red Fin Shark and I was wondering if they could be tankmates? I know the shark enjoys solitude and is generally a community fish if kept without any other sharks.

So, how would he go in the tank with a betta? Would the betta mistake his tail as another betta?


BTW...my plans for building my own betta tank are well under way! The tank is built and is just sitting in my garage filled to brim with water where it shall stay for the next couple of weeks constantly checking for drips or leaks...so far so good.
 
Yep, a 2.5 g is pretty much maxed out with the betta, not to mention that those sharks can get around 6 inches and become pretty territorial as they age.
