    Stocking question

    Hey Iā€™ve got a heavily planted 10 gallon with a male betta and 6 harlequin rasboras as well as 3 nerite snails. So far they all get along and they all interact peacefully. However I felt like maybe the rasborasā€™ group of 6 is too small, and maybe i should add 3 more for a group of 9. Cyclewise...

    Is this normal betta behavior?

    I recently got a betta. I've always read that they hang out at the top of the tank but mine likes to hang out in his skulls and he keeps swimming like this.
