7 gallon betta tank

by **furry_catfish** on Sat Jan 16, 2010 4:26 pm

Hi everyone [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] I have a 7 gallon tank that I wan't to put a male betta in,but 7 gallon is enough to make a small comunity tank, right? I was thinking pygmy corys and shrimp? but are there any other fish that I can put in there?

by **aly_starh** on Sat Jan 16, 2010 4:27 pm

Imo, pygmy cories should be fine. 4-5, as they like being in groups.

Regarding other fish, possibly endlers?

by **kizno1** on Sat Jan 16, 2010 4:29 pm

pygmy corys,kulli loach, shrimp, snails, adf depending on the betta endlers or a group of small rasbora

by **furry_catfish** on Sat Jan 16, 2010 4:31 pm

I thought of endlers but I am already getting some and I like a variety,would shell-dwellers work? or do they need special ph requirements?

^^agree with Aly

Pygmy cories and maybe Copper Harlequin Rasboras, but only 4 or 5.

Best to add the others first before the betta. A lot of plants will help too.

^^ with Kizno too Very Happy

the like a ph of 8+ where as bettas like it a little lowed and they would batter the betta i think. small rasbora or tetra would work

by **kizno1** on Sat Jan 16, 2010 4:34 pm

i think the corys kullis shrimp and adf would all like your tank because of all the leafes on the bottom aswell.

by **furry_catfish** on Sat Jan 16, 2010 4:38 pm
