Iā€™m assuming they are male and female, is there a way of sexing them? Would the top snail be the male one? Would two females behave like this? Has anyone...

    Questions about keeping betta

    Hello all, I have seen many amazing pictures of betta on here and now I am looking to get some, and I just had a few questions. I am actually hoping to breed them do you recommend that to a person who has been keeping fish for a bit over a year? and can you keep shrimp with or will they be eaten?
