Hi there! I am new (very, very new) to Betta fish. When I first bought my Betta, a male named Pigg, I put him in my old African Dwarf Frog tank. It was probably a gallon, and I knew it was much too small. I ended up getting him a 10g tank all to himself. There may soon be some fish in there with him (one of my upcoming questions), and for now he has a heater, a filter, lights, and a couple of plants.
So, my questions:
His filter is obviously too strong, but I couldn't afford a fancy one and can't return this one. I really want to find a way to keep it going, as his tank it very clean and with a 10g I don't want to have to do full water changes every week. How can I make it more manageable for Pigg with the filter in there?
What types of fish get along with Betta?
Please respond soon- I'm going shopping for him tomorrow!
