hey guys,

im a fan of betta but if stop owning them for a few years now. my last betta was red with long and spiky tail. sorry, dont know the actual breed. before it dies, it keep sinking to the bottom of the tank, only coming to the surface for a gasp of breath, then sinks back down again. i've tried stimulating it using a mirror and it did response to it well, but will sink again when i took away the mirror. what kind of disease is this?

another female betta of mine.... it became bloated to a round shape and finally the tummy exploded and died. i did not overfed it... got infected with virus?

last question, i plan to buy another long tail betta again, and plan to put it togheter with a group of guppies. i read somewhere that it's not recommended, but what if i outnumber the betta with, say, 20 over guppies to 1 betta. will my betta behave then?

thx

can't really judge from the photo coz the betta doesnt seem to be flaring....i reckon that it is a superdelta betta....or at best halfmoon betta
is there anyway i can confirm this?

take a photo of ur betta flaring either at his reflection/another betta....because halfmoons are judged based on the shape of their tails
I've bought a smaller container and removed my betta from my 2 feet aquarium. Now i can take photo with it much easier.... so mine is superdelta betta or halfmoon betta?

The first pic is taken when there's not enough room light and the 2nd pic is taken with a small emergency light turned on next to the container.

I've also bought a female.... they seem to start curling each other already. need to ask you experts what should i do next when i see eggs on the surface? Remove the female?

Thx.
