Thats right they have 11 female betta fish in the same tank and its not that big. maybe 6 gallons. they are also housed with some red crabs.....
at least 4 of them are showing stress stripes albeit the shop seem to think horizontel stripes on betta fish mean they are female.
what should i do? i know you shouldnt have this many betta together, i can see clear signs of fin nipping and also saw some gang up on one little battea but managed to distract them with my finger.
i think i should report them and i did email them saying they are showing signs of stress and they should be moved all i got back was (this is a direct quote from the email reply) "if you no any thing about betters the strips show that they are femal the bright colored ones are you male "
i am going to go take pictures of it today.
anyone have any idea who i can report it too?
