I can't wait to see your site come out. I've been more interested in killifish lately, and it would be great to see you come out with a killifish website.You seem to be very intelegent about fish, and especialy about killifish.

You will rarely buy fish from the fish store that are full size. The point is that when those fish get bigger, your going to have a problem.

If you are keeping 2 or more male bettas to gether in any sized tank, then there will be serious fights, and someone will die. I'm pretty sure that this is common knowledge. I know you can keep community tanks with some female bettas, but I would say that bettas(males especialy) don't make good...

If my lfs was keeping male betta fish with all the other fish, I wouldn't give them anymore buisness.

I would say its too warm, get it around 80, and if you can't, take the dang thing out lol. And a filter should be fine. Especially a sponge filter.

I thought it would be too small. Thanks for the help.

Is a 2.5 gallon tank big enough for my betta to share with an African Dwarf frog? Thanks

I've used a filter with my betta since I got him. Rite now I'm using a Tetra Whisper filter, and put the flow rate on a lower setting. He likes to play in the small current, but I am always sure he has somewhere to go to get away. I never do full water changes, I just vacume the crap out and do...

I haven't had a problem sucking up gravel yet. If your using sand, don't put the vack rite up to it.

I believe that the general rule is one per 5 gallons, and I don't think that its a good idea to stretch that limit. I've heard they're quit mean though, so it would have to be a species tank.

If you have a tropical fish store near you, you should go check out the bettas there. You will have a better chance of finding rare bettas like crown tails and duel tails, and you would also probably have better luck finding solid color bettas

That will work fine, you will just need to do more frequent water changes. I'm sure that you can find cheap glass bowls that are around two gallons at wal mart or some place like that.

I haven't seen a cheaper one that has a hood light, and a filter.

My betta does fine with the filter on one of the lower settings. He seems to enjoy playing in the light current at times. I am just careful he has a place to go to sleep, or rest, or do whatever it is that fish do. I don't use a heater with mine, as I live in Florida, and don't really think that...

Yep, you'll be set up fine. Just remember the 2.5 gallon I showed you has a hood and a light, and a filter. Also, you can probably buy that stuff at Walmart, and save some $$. I got my 2.5g tank from WalMart, and it has worked fine. Here is a pic of my betta, Floyd, in my 2.5 gallon aquarium. I...
