HELP!! My Betta is Bullying My Platy!

[Maegan]

my betta is bullying my platy and almost all of his top fin is gone so i moved my platy to a bowl but now i don't know what to do! help please!

Meagan, if your tank can acomidate more fish, add a few more platy. This will spread the aggression. Your betta will not be able to focus on an individual fish. Good luck.

Thanks, V227, i ended up moving my betta out of the tank and putting my platy back in. my betta is in a 3 gallon and my platy is in a 5 gallon. they seem to both be happy so far but i'm looking into other arrangements for them
