    Female betta?

    Sporting an egg spot for sure :) Was hoping for a male but that's alright, sure has a long body and fins

    New tank :)

    Thank you! I'm gonna go with 7 just because I know they like to school and I heard that's the minimum.

    New tank :)

    I'm getting a 20 gallon sometime within the next few weeks. I currently have a 5 gal, stocked with 1 female betta and 2 cories (unsure of sex.) I researched and found cories need a school of their species. Once my cycling is done, I'm going to switch all my fish to the 20 gal and put my baby...

    Baby betta

    So I bought a betta from the pet store about a week ago (maybe less). He's in a 1 gal until he outgrows it. He's only about an inch long. He won't eat from the top but will chase the pellets down. This results in deep cleaning every two days. How do I wean him onto top feeding? I called Petco...

    Switching to sand

    What I did was take all the rocks out and all the water and I cleaned the walls of my tank. I put the sand in about 1/4, 1/3 of the tank and did gravel the rest. No cloudiness, nothing. My cories stay on the sand- they love it :). I didn't do the whole tank sand because I heard bettas confuse...

    Switching to sand

    Hi. :) I have a betta and 2 cories in my 5 gal. I bought the cories before I knew they should be kept in 6s because Petco people are stupid. I also bought them before I knew they like sand. Sooooo I'm doing a half sand, half gravel tank :) I have a 2 gal container for my cories to go into...

    Baby betta

    Shoot. I fell for the baby betta again. Went to Petco to get my sister a Molly and ended up with two fish. My other betta (who I bought as a baby) is a very healthy female who's about 5 months old. :) This little guy was the smallest one of em all. He's approx half an inch (maybe closer to an...

    Help with sick Guppy!

    Hard to tell. First picture looks 100% female which would explain a lot. Second picture could be a male though.

    Living with the cories

    Earlier this morning I noticed my cories and my betta just swimming towards each other. They've started to like each other- a little too much. My cories go up the glass a couple inches cleaning the tank and when I returned, I noticed my betta near where the cories were. I saw eggs- or I thought...
