Beta in a 10 gallon community

Really? the Deluxe one? Cuz there is one that is 27$ normally, but I believe that it comes without a heater and net and some of the other stuff.

If it is the deluxe one, i wonder if the non deluxe one is on sale too, because that would be a score.
 
I work at walmart and it is where I got my 10 gallon. The Starter version is 27 bucks... The Deluxe is still 59.99
I went ahead and got the starter I figured by the for the 33 dollar I saved by not getting the deluxe Ic ould go to my LFS and find some of the things I wanted. SCORE... I got a bigger neat for 98 cents .. a bigger automatic heater for 10 bucks and the Gravel I needed. I also had enough left over to get a 25 strip water test kit. The advantages were great.. also instead of the Florecent lighting it came with the normal light bulb. which I prefer (I picked up a true blue light that really shows off the colors of my Tiger barbs.)

I got a Glass thermometer from walmart while I was there for less then 2 bucks.. so for about the same money was able to get the same stuff or better... plus gravel and a water test kit.
 
i already have a 10 gallon, and i am in a college dorm so i dont have room for another 10. anyway i already bought the 2 gallon. if i got a betta i would probably put him in the 10 gallon eventually, but the 2 gallon would be to get him used to the larger space. i hope to use my 2 gallon as a hospital tank, or a fry tank. seeing as i dont have any sick fish or fry i was thinking about putting some sort of a fish in there cause i feel like im wasting money having a tank sitting around with no fish
 
how do bettas handle aggrssive fish, i was under the impression that they were pretty tough fish that the other fish would leave alone. I ask cause i have a molly that controls my tank and she can be a bit mean
 
skinned peas

Also, you can try boiled skinned peas...some bettas supposedly love 'em.

:confused: :confused: :confused: :confused:
Can somebody please tell me how the heck you skin a pea?

belmont0182--bettas are very aggressive to similar looking fish, like paradise fish and guppies, but ignore most other fish. They can chase smaller fish, but with anything that nips, they are pretty well sunk. Those pretty fins are a tempting target for other fish, so mixing them in a community tank can be risky--requires monitoring.

adblair--Squish the pea between your fingertips. The insides will come out, and leave a tough shell. If your betta is in a community tank with other herbivores, especially rasper types like ancistrus, they will love this shell as well.
 
i have mollys in my tank, they do chase each other around a bit, but i have never sees any fin nipping. Im looking them over as i type and they all have healthy fins.
