Hey everyone!
I have a 45 gal fluval bowfront that I'm looking to stock with Mollies, tetras, guppies and a Pleco. A person at our LFS said that having a betta in the tank to start will help get the tank started in cycling. Will the other fish start to nip at the bettas fins once it's established? Would a female betta be better than a male for this? If a betta won't work what type of fish would be best to start? Thank you! Any advice is welcome
