Hi all,
So i asked my LFS for some advice (stupid i know!) on which fish would suit my community tank including my betta splenden, he suggested a Dwarf Gourami.
At first the betta flared up a bit but nothing more, and now on very rare occasion they have a bit of a showy stand off. However, this is becoming a rare occasion and there's been no nipping or fighting.
I read yesterday online that Bettas and Dward Gouramis should never be put together as they will smash each other to pieces.
My question is this: will they eventually kill each other or has anyone had any exoperience of them living in relative harmony?
