Had two male Bettas in a moderately planted separated 10G and I just didn't think they were happy enough. One male Betta now has one entire 10G to himself and I moved another male Betta into a moderately planted 20L community tank I have.
My question is, do you think the male in the 20L is happy? It has friendly community fish - tetras, corydoras, a female dwarf crayfish, a mystery snail and a tiny clown pleco. I have read that Bettas like to be alone, but he seems happier than in the 10G? He is much more active and seems to be more relaxed? He has plenty of plants to rest on and lots of driftwood to seek shelter under/in.
How will I know if he becomes stressed/unhappy? I don't want to stress him with too many other tank mates. Though he seems to completely ignore them and vice versa.
Thanks!
