Overstocked?

[BettaKing]

I have 1 Betta, 3 Platies and 2 Ghost Shrimp. Could I add anything else? Any inverts/fish or whatever? I don't want snails(too much poo), my female is really sweet so aggression is not a problem. Thx
P.S I'm going to the Pet store in a little while so respond quickly

you don't have a lot of room, but depending on your filter and such you could prob get away with another platy maybe?

 

[BettaKing]

I don't knowif I want another Platy. Anything else? If not it's fine just wondering if I can.

youre pretty much out of options, if your filter is really good, you can do another platy like new said. but, if not, not much left.

 

[jetajockey]

you could go with more ghost shrimp. Or a different type of shrimp, but dwarf shrimp can be eaten by a betta and platys. Not always though, and for some people it works out, so if its worth risking then its a possibility.

Would a snail be bad? I like them but I'm worried about the bio-load. Would it hurt?

 

[jetajockey]

bigger snails like mystery snails are kinda heavy bioload, but something like nerites would work. Some bettas don't get along with snails, so I'd do it on a trial basis, but you could get away with a few in there.

Ok I'll look around maybe get some other shrimp. Thanks for ya'lls help
