OK how much, what and when do you feed them. Being aggressive is not a "normal" behaviour do you have an area with live plants she can go to? She just might be trying to claim an area of the tank for her self. *Have a look in [link=My Profile] http://www.fishprofiles.com/forums/member.aspx?id=1935[/link] for my tank info* Look here for my Betta 11Gal Desktop & Placidity 5ft Community Tank Photos Keith Near enough is not good enough, therefore good enough is not near enough, and only your best will do.

I only ever use a measuring spoon that way you are guaranteed to give the correct amount evey time.
