I have been looking at bettas, they are beautiful and don't seem so tricky to keep! I've been on this site all day now and am not so intimidated by the idea of going tropical!
The idea of a betta with a few shrimps then later the shoalings sounds great, would a 60 litre tank be big enough for this??
I know my questions prob seem silly, I just dont want to get it wrong!!
Bettas are pretty #41#### easy as far as tropical fish go and they really do have great personalities.
I keep my male betta in a 50L with some endlers and cherry shrimp (who knows how many!) and it works out great. The only potential problem is that bettas are very much individuals, and whilst mine doesn't bother with the shrimp at all, some might eat them - in that case, slightly bigger shrimp like amanos may be a better choice. But all round, sounds like a good plan!
