    Exclamation HELP!!!!!

    My betta keeps attacking my new angelfish! Is there anything i can do to make him stop. I've tried rearanging the tank, that didn't work. I dont want to get rid of one of them. My halfmoon king betta, Mike, is really awesome and he costed $22. The koi angel, Cori, is really awesome too.

    cross your fingers..
    the mix usually doesn't work.
    if it continues you may need to move the fish.
    how large is the tank?

    Get a different tank for the betta... An actual tank, not a bowl or a "betta condo", I don't think this relationship is going to work out long term.
    [biomajorstudent] 7:13 am: Maybe you should take some hints from them. Dress up really
    fancy, chase a girl around, and when she's not looking...

    remember, this isn't the wild where each fish might have a thousand gallons to itself. This is a tiny box, and tempers run short if temperaments aren't compatible.

    I wouldn't house a MALE betta with an angel under any circumstances. That's just asking for bad news.

    The Betta probably thought the angelfish was another Betta...

    This is so true, bettas will think other fish with long fins are other bettas and therefore a threat.
    I would move the betta to another tank.
