I have has bettas twice and both time either killed, got killed or both. I won't keep them anymore unless they are by themselves. I had a betta and a pleco go at it once and it was pretty furious. After all, they are called Chinese fighting fish.

Just a little clarification...they are called that, as well as Japanese fighting fish, but a proper common name would be Siamese fighting fish, as they are from and were developed in Thailand when it had its former name.

Kerouac, you're just lucky, I believe...and painted glassfish are best kept in brackish water...OR BEST LEFT IN THE STORE. I am not mentioning this to chastise you but to educate others. PGs are cruelly injected with dye which may cause complications or may just fade altogether.
