MAYBE a school of CPDs in there or two or three endler's livebearers.

I agree with bruinsbro, but watch out because your betta may not like them in his room. I really like endlers so I would pick them!

arent those hard to find though?

They can be... I found some at one pet store for like $10 and I said no way! But I looked in the feeder fish tank in my lfs and saw that they had some in there for 29¢! They may not be fully pure but they still look amazing!

haha, nice deal

 

[Galligak]

Yeah it was amazing! I'm hoping to breed mine and have little endlers soon!

are they easy to breed?

 

[Galligak]

Just like guppies. Make sure that there is 2-3 females per male, then just add water. It's really that easy, plus they don't eat their own young?

do u think petsmart will have them?

 

[Galligak]

I got mine at petland. I haven't seen any at petsmart, but I did find that they had some hybrids that were called Cobra Endlers Guppy. But there is always a chance! Check out the classifieds here, aquabid, and even eBay. Just check the reviews that the people have had with the fish!

cool, ive never ordered fish online

 

[Galligak]

Neither have I, but I have ordered plants. Just make sure that they have a live arrival garuntee then you''ll be good to buy them!
