My friend is trying the 'when my hamsters die' thing, but with gerbils. For now, it sounds like a nice little setup. Keep us posted |

WHAT you put in with a betta can be just as important as WHEN you put it. For example in a small tank the betta has probably already claimed it as his own, and anything you put in may be considered invading his territory and trouble may arise. If you put a betta in with other already existing fish there may be much less trouble. And definitely, with betta, avoid anything with longer flowing finnage.  |

luvmykrib Fish Addict Posts: 585 Kudos: 256 Votes: 27 Registered: 08-Nov-2005  | An easy way to deal with the betta having his territory invaded is to bag him up, intro the new fish and then let him back in, do this with the tank lights out in the evening and leave the lights off til morning, you can rearrange the caves if you have them, this way everyone starts off fresh. My betta accepted all his new friends quite well, but in my other tank it is the krib I have to use this trick with, and it works fairly well.
