OK, lots of questions here about brackish tanks. :) I have some brackish fish in my freshwater tank and I want to start a brackish tank and move them. Here are the fish that I have, and I'm reading different things, so I'm not sure which fish are actually brackish and which aren't. Anyone know...

I'm thinking about getting a small tank/large bowl for a male betta. Do I need to cycle the tank/bowl? I've never heard of anyone doing this, but I don't see why it wouldn't need to be done. Is there anything special I need to know about bettas? All I really know is that I can't put 2 males...
