My Betta rescue

[Ballyhoo]

-- these are the pictures from craigslist. I will post more when I have them in my possession and settled into new homes



they were rescued by someone else who had them up for free on craigslist, she originally had 3 but one was already adopted.

I'm going to divide a 20 gallon into thirds for these 2 and my current betta. Would that be enough space?

the sections will have sand substrate and be lightly planted.

That should work out great. Congrats!!!

5-6g (after divider/substrate) will be perfect!! What sort of divider are you going to use?

Looks like they'll be beautiful once they perk up a bit!

Best Regards,

Why do you keep finding all the good stuff on CL? The beautiful filter when you needed it for your 55, the 29g, now these? Grr.

Where do I apply for that job? Does it pay more than the 2 I have to work now..?

OR - we could work something out where you scour sfbay.craigslist.org for me Daily alerts with good deals in my area could work..

I have no problem doing that

 

[BettaFishMommy]

just be sure to qt the new bettas before you put them in the divided tank with your current one!

 

[Ballyhoo]

How long do you recommend to qt them?

 

[patrick.paul]

Usually a quarantine lasts from 2-4 weeks because that allows them to acclimate to your water conditions as well as gives you a chance to examine them for any signs of illness.

Your choice as to whether or not you can wait that long!
