What permanent or cause its injured or soemthing?

If it's for a permanent home then no. If it's just for holding while you sort a tank out then he'll be fine.

 

[Jamesham]

what about in a community tank as a center piece fish.

with the following fish:
7 rummy nose tetras
2 pokeadot loaches
4 albino cory cats
3 sturbie
1 albino bristle nose plec
2 goby of some sort
3 mollies

What size tank is it just out of curiosity... Im not sure if hed work in there though, it totally depends on the bettas temperment. If I were you Id invest in a 2.5-10 gallon tank and put one in there.

but its in a breeding trap, you know

As the other people said, its much to small. Just because some people might put them in there doesnt mean its right... they do need some swimming room and that gives very little.

 

[Jamesham]

right thanks very much for the help. But can you think of anyother centerpiece fish i can put in with the fish i have just said about?

 

[connorsbala]

Dwarf Gouramies?

 

[unspoken930]

not sure what a "sturbie" is or a "polkadot loach" but if theyre smallish peaceful community fish, then maybe a new world cichlid like a german ram or an apistogramma... they have brilliant colors.

thats what i just had but they died. still dont know how i think they might have been fighting or the water was to hard

But thanks for the idea
