Thanks again for another awesome video! I was looking for some advice from someone; So I have a female betta, who lived with 3 other guppies and 4 tetras in a 20-gallon. They got along just okay, yah know the betta kinda chased the guppies a little but never hurt them. So I got 2 more guppies and one instantly got sick. It had a swim bladder from the store, so I took it out and put it in isolation for a couple days until it looked better after Epsom salt baths and so I put it back in the tank, well my betta who had never hurt a fish before, swam up to the guppie instantly and viciously ripped it's tail off, killing the guppie from shock. It was terrible to see, and it happened so fast! I thought it was all fine, yeah know my betta just sensed it was sick and wouldn't do it again, but after 2 days all my guppies had been killed by my betta except one that only had minor tears and I took out of the tank and I put it in another tank. I don't understand what's happened to my betta, she's downright vicious all of a sudden and now I only have tetras and her in the tank, because I'm worried she'll kill anything else I put in there. She's lived In other tanks with other fish too and had only been very mildly territorial and never hurt anything. I want to put some platies in, but I'm worried they'll resemble a betta too much to her. I don't know what to do, because I was breeding my guppies that she killed and now I don't know Of an easy-to-breed fish that she won't kill. Thanks, in advance for any words of wisdom.

I have a question I have a 55 gallon fish tank and I wanted to do a community tank wit a betta is it okay if I get more one tank mate for the Betta

[asennisal]

Amazing video thank you fro sharing this video

I have a few questions. Is it best to add the Betta last or at the same time as you put your other schools of fish? Also let’s say you have you have a Red Betta and you have a school of fish like, neon tetras. Having colorful fish that are similar to the red betta is that going to encourage the Betta to go after the fish similar to the color of the betta?… Is that a threat to the betta???
Also if you have any of the schools of fish like 3 to 4 sets of schools of fish and the Betta how large of a tank would you need? That would be 18 to 24 fish plus the Betta and maybe a bottom feeder, how large of tank would you need?
Thank you for answering my questions. I enjoyed this video soooo much. I love my Bettas!❤️

Hi Lisa and John. I have a 29 gallon tank and wish to setup a betta sorority and some other fish. I want 12 neon tetras, bristlenose precocious, 3 ottocinclus and maybe a few corys. How many bettas would I need. Thanks

[pramodmane]

Betta fish is one of the best choice for beginners. Love you Betta❤.

I was Stressed that my betta would be lonely, But this helped a lot and also can hermit crabs live with bettas?

[BlessedWithPets]

I’ve got 9 female bettas, an Angelfish, a pleco, and 2 female guppies. I’m going to get another trio of guppies and an extra male guppy, but I’m thinking about adding a trio of balloon mollies and a trio of platies. Any tips?

[jevonpillay]

This video is very useful to me thank you very much 😊

Hey great video but I'm wanting to add cherry barbs to my tank I have a koi plakat betta fully grown. I'm curious if you think cherry barbs would be okay in my 50 gallon planted tank with my betta. Currently whats with him is 3 madagascar rainbow, 12 cardinal tetras, bristle nose, 3 Cory cats.

[Beta]

i'm struggling with my rummynose tetras. added a betta to my 50 gallon tank yesterday and today they chase him and nip on his fins whenever he leaves his hideout. separated the betta into a breeding box for now, not sure what to do next

[LyssaJane]

Ive got a female betta and a Hillstream Loach and they live happily together in a 3gal! Im wanting to upgrade to maybe a 20gal but Im not sure what i want with them. I was kinda thinking Platys.... How many should i put in the 20gal? I maybe also get one or two more Hillstreams.

[Feathersandfloof]

Would a 36 gallon be large enough to keep a betta with a honey gourami? I have a peaceful dumbo ear betta, and he gets along well with my longfin bristlenose pleco, corys, and bamboo shrimp. I'm still looking for a school to add.

For anyone that can help, I’d like to start a community tank in my 40gal breeder tank and I’d like to have multiple species. I was thinking about a betta for a centerpiece fish and have some bottom dwellers and some schooling fish. My tank is 78-80degrees F, live planted, has natural rocks, driftwood, rock hides, has aquaponics and bamboo hanging on the top of the tank and I’m trying to grow pothos but I only have 2 leaf cuttings. I only have one male betta in the tank currently because it was my moms and she needed to give him to me because she moved to a place that doesn’t allow animals (including fish) and it was my only cycled and prepared tank. He’s 6-7 years old so he’s very old for a betta so it’s a retirement home for him. I don’t plan on getting any fish until I add more plants and until he eventually passes away. He is very skinny but still eats like before. He’s shown signs of old age for the last few months which is expected. He’s still active, he just sleeps more. But if anyone can give me some stocking ideas for the tank, I’d love to know. And any criticism and advice is appreciated ❤

My tank water info in case anyone needs it:
Ph: 7.0-76 (closer to 7.2)
Ammonia: 0-0.25ppm
Nitrite: 0ppm
Nitrate: 5.0-10ppm

I have a veiltail Betta fish which is male and a little bit aggressive.I have also added hiding places in my tank so can you pls give me any advise that should I put some guppies with my Betta or not

[MrMiyad]

Last week released 4 pairs of harlequin rasboras to my BETTA tank. Eating ok but not moving much(harlequin). Each harlequin fish is fixed in a different place. Is this a problem or are harlequins naturally less mobile?

[kjpdjb]

Best video I've found thus far! Thank you!

[Stephenkiernana]

Every betta I have ever had couldn’t live peacefully with platies cause the betta would chase them
