It's unlikely that I'll even get these Bettas, like, at ALL, but I saw them at Pet Valu today.... And they were, like, absolutely BEAUTIFUL. I went all when I saw them. (Btw: They're both males.)
The first one was a delta tail: He was red (I believe), with a red tail and sort of a white fringe at the end.
The second one was a scissors tail (also called a double tail?), who was pink with sort of ghostly white fins.
And I REEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALLY want both of them.
But my Mom said that I'm not allowed to keep any more 5-gallons -- maybe a 2-gallon drumb bowl -- at the MAX. D:
But I was also thinking about, if I don't get the bowls (although I certainly have enough money for about two or three of them; I'll probably need three since I'm giving one of my Bettas (the aggressive female) to my little sister), about maybe having a 5-gallon tank with a divider? They have these tanks that they sell at PetSmart; it's just the tank, nothing else added, and it's for $20, so I'm assuming that that would be my best bet.
No matter if I keep a 2-gallon or a 5-gallon with partitions, it's not going to have a filter.... But I'm just wondering, what kind of heating could I use? I have one of those flimsy little heaters for 2- to 5-gallon tanks, soo.... And since it didn't work in my 5-gallon, I'm assuming that it might work in a 2-gallon, but then I'd have to buy a few more of *THEM* before I could set up and use the tanks.
Any opinions? Help? Advice?
