OK. I have two betta fish. One is in a 1.5 gallon tank, and the other in a 1 gallon fish bowl. They both have pleasant rocks and a few fake plants, but I decided to get them some friends. So I went to the store, like an idiot, blind to the fact that WalMart sucks sometimes. I bought two Otocinclus catfish, one for each area.
I've already found out that my blue betta is super aggressive, because though I once had a divider in the larger tank for both betta, the red one jumped over and got his tail kicked and some fins shredded by the blue fish.
After introducing the Otocinclus catfish to the betta fish, the red one took notice, but they are calm together. The blue betta, however, keeps chasing the catfish. I am not sure if he is playing with him, because he'll sneak up right next to the poor suckerfish and then jab at him. Luckily, the Otocinclus catfish is quick, and avoids pain.
Should I remove this Otocinclus catfish?
