How many betta's? How big of a tank? What type of decor?
I love hearing about the communities. They're so cool.
I have 5 girls in my 25gal in the basement, with 6 minnows of some sort (I forget) and theres lots of baby guppies in there as well because the holes in the divider are too big. In the other 25gals of the tank is a large guppie communitie meant for breeding.
I started the tank off with 1 of my girls who has been kept by herself in a 1.5gal all her life, and I left her there by herself first to make sure it was safe. After a few days of her being in there, I put my already-exsisting 3 community betta's in there. They became very territorial about it at first, chasing eachother around, but after 2 weeks of living together they very RARELY flare at eachother, and even then it's just to get the other one out of the way.
Then I bought a girl from the store and put her in there as well. She learned her place quickley and now gets along with everyone.
I just love it!!
