If I were in a betta boy's fins, I would be very apprehensive about having such enthusiastic, fast moving roommates. I've seen mollies and they don't give a fig as to who might be in their way, they just dash madly about the tank, doing what mollies do best. ~Meow. Thus spoke the cat.~ |

chelaine Big Fish Posts: 383 Kudos: 343 Votes: 78 Registered: 23-Jul-2005 | well, it originally was an idea to make room for the 60-ish new fry i found this morning. I've had three females give birth in the past two days. so. now i'm running out of room... I've got a 10 gallon only for the fry, i have a 29 gallon with a betta and plecostomus, and a 55 gallon where all the love-making is taking place. so... I already had some three week old fry in the ten gallon and i didnt think they were ready for the 55 gallon. but they were to big to mix in with the new fry..... any suggestions? *Chelle* I love the fishes cuz they're SOOO delicious... |
