5g suggestions

i have a betta with adf in a 10g....

they largely ignore each other, however plus side is adfs eat bloodworm 3 times a week and the betta gets in on the act too...i feed him betta pellets on the other days....this makes the tank very low cost to maintain

do your blood worms sink? or do you use a turkey baster to feed the adf? have yet to find an authentic adf here

the ay i do it is during the water changes, so the frozen bloodworm is mixed through the water in the bucket i am pouring in

that way they circulate through the whole tank with the majority of bloodworm being where the water goes in

some of the adf are more shy than others...over time they have learnt the positive association....water change = food...so some of the adf have become almmost agressive (probably wrong word, excited would be better) at water change time...my wife swears they know when i'm due to do a water change!

the tank is extremely havily planted, so further to the water change i see them scavneging for a while

dont know anything about authentic adf, mine all have webbed hands so they are no acfs anyway

i would use a turkey baster if it were a larger tank (there is only one betta in there) as i feel they are outcompeted for food, i lost some through starvation when the adf were in my 30G
