i want my betta to have fun. dun 1 them o be lonely!!

No they won't be lonely when u put 2 bettas side by side and let them flare with each other. Letting 2 bettas fight one another isn't fun but cruel. I suggest you get yourself some guppies if you wan your fishes to get intimate with one another. Bettas are meant to be kept alone unless your rearing them in a 2ft tank with plenty of places to hide then you'll be able to let your bettas have "fun" but still you'll see them with torn fins as they'll fight one another when they meet

hahaha, brother, u r the one having fun or them???

come..pass to me let my soon hock settle it LOL

let me sort thing out cause some ppl tot i am cruel and having fun with seeing two betta fighting.

my setting:1)2ft tank with plenty of water grass and water plant with good filter
2)sand as the te bottom layer of tank
3) around 10 tetra neon
4) with few decorative rock , vase and more
5) 1 CT male betta.
6) 1 female betta ( those cheap type that ppl use to feed big fishes)

att first just the tank and neon and water plant . then i drop in my CT betta. he pretty happy out there. then i 1 to let my CT have more fun so i put in female betta. hope they will breed or just play around.

so is it good choice to let my two betta together ? the boy still chase the girl when see her but not very aggressive to bite liao. just abit abit.

my tank setting is above. thx for all the tips and help .

soon hock what's that ?

try to put and observe. mayb work well in ur tank

bro, dont try tat, if ur betta is big enug then it wil eat ur guppies fries, i experienced tat b4 and betta not nice to mix with guppies.
bro lefty: u can keep ur male betta with the neon of vice versa. but if u wan to breed them, then better seperate out the female, and later when u nottice tat ur female is about to breed, then take them out to a seperated tank....the details u can refer to malaysia betta society website: http://www.topbb.com/forum/index.php?mforum=bsm , u can find me over there too. sorry if i made u misunderstood the word "fun" i put in my previous post.

thx for the info dowg.

u r welcome, me from penang too, ka ki lang, pa si bo xiang kang, hahahahahaha.....btw wat is "dowg" ?

same as our hokkien meaning of " hiah di"

hahahahaha, icic, so deep so deep

Psst psst, got my fish from Yewlin in Nov. I realize that the tail is slowly splitting. Any help? My tank is a filtered tank and every 3-4 days I will change 15% of the water. I threw a bit of ketapang leave only because I do not want my tank to be brownish in colour. Added about 5ml of salt but still slowly splitting. The ends of the tail do not tear, just that i can see the tail splitted.

wahlaooo, got from master Yewlin? must be very good fish wat u mean splitting?? is it a CT or DT?? or fin rot?? hv any pic to show?? normally ketapang + salt is very good for the bettas aldi, or u can try melafix la if u wan hope it recover soon. keep us update la bro.

hi weesin,

base on ur avater i can't see the splitting there maybe u can post more closer snap . It might be fin rot...which is normal for me. Just make sure u change water every 2 days is okay already with anti-clorin plus salt.

jaspery27,
The is royal blue butterfly HM. i got fews more turq bf, steel bf and royal blue bf

There are no splitting in this picture because it was taken before the split happen. This is just a ST HM BF. not DT or CT so shouldnt have splits. Maybe it is fin rots. Tried the salt but really dunno how much I need to put. Later put too much my fish KO.

I will try to get a snap on the splits and put it up soon.

icic,
weesin82: if i am not mistaken, 5 gallon add 1 tbs salt.... correct me if i am wrong all sifuu. thnxxx
