Given the size (5gals) - it really doesn't lend itself to any type of spectacular stocking, however I would think a few female bettas would be rather nice.... Shop well and you could still maintain a colorful tank.... The only word of caution that I would have would be is to try and arrange your purchases at about the same time - because my past experience has shown that even females tend to get a bit territorial...... To thine own self be true... |
