Also, no paradise fish or some gouramis. ><> ~=!Vote Today!=~ <>< -----> View My Dragons <----- |

fishyfishy26![]() Hobbyist Posts: 62 Kudos: 12 Votes: 0 Registered: 18-Mar-2007 ![]() ![]() | Hmmm I was thinking bettas needed a lower pH, and softer water. I can't get any though cause I have red eye tetra (very hardy ones that don't seem to want to die! not that I want them to!) |

jasonpisani![]() ![]() ![]() *Ultimate Fish Guru* Posts: 5553 Kudos: 7215 Votes: 1024 Registered: 24-Feb-2003 ![]() ![]() | Bettas are quite hardy & will live in a wide range of pH. I used to keep mine in a range of 7.2 - 7.8 without problems & died of old age after 4 years. http://www.flickr.com/photos/corydoras/ Member of the Malta Aquarist Society - 1970. http://www.maltaaquarist.com |
