Hey guys.. I got a new betta for my moms 5.5g betta tank, hers died... And while in Wal-Mart I saw another that really caught my eye.. well two actually.. One was a pink/red/orange one I have never seen colors like this before.. So I got him and I put him in my moms 30 long gallon tank.. The tank has 7 neons, like 8-9 livebearer like platy and sword tails.. 2 cory cats and a Bolivian ram..
The only fish im concerned about is the ram, but watching them the ram doesn't care about him.. The betta though when another fish gets nears him.. he kinda flairs up and goes after him for a second.. But normally he doesn't seem to bother anyone...
The other betta I didn't get but Im debating on going back and getting him.. He was emerald green... like the emerald gemstone and shiny too.. Very pretty.. I didn't get him though but I don't know if it would be smart to even put them in my main tanks..
The 27g Hex has ALOT of fish in it.. So it might be to crowded for him. I got white clouds, red/blue fin tetra, neon and glow light tetras, dwarf neon rainbow and Celebes rainbow. 3 Adult gold barbs... and some black neon tetra's.
The 55g, has mostly big fish.. 2 gourami (gold and blue) 3 angel fish (crossing my fingers they wont die like the others have) 2 bolivian ram, 2 gold barbs, 2 boesamani rainbow and 2 turquoise rainbows.. Since the 55g has a lot of giant fish in it that aren't even fully grown I don't think it would be a good tank for a betta ? And I don't know about my hex either..
What do you guys think ? Yes no ? Do you think I should return the other one I got for the 30g or do you think itll be ok ?
