Is It Possible

[K.J.]

For two different bettas? I was thinking of doing that, but I don't know if that would leave enough room for two bettas.. would it?

Yeah, that's enough room for 2 bettas.

Great.
Would the turn out be better with a female on one side and a male on the other, or two males, or two females? A male and a female might be interesting, but.. I'm not sure if they would go crazy or not.

If they cant see each other through the divider which is recommended, any combo would do. I still think you should make that tank a killie breeding tank . Just kidding I love bettas all the same. Best of luck.

It depends on how my parents feel about it. xD I'm still only sixteen, and thus.. I have to live at home. So, limited space issues, although I will be able to fit a five gallon in my room along with my 3 gallon for my male betta.

I'm thirteen and after I got my 4 tank(3rd betta tank) she said absolutely no more, and look where that got me, now I've got a 5.5 gallon tank setting it up for killi breeding. My room is pretty much an aquarium, I should start making people pay to come in, like professional aquariums

My mom is.. pissed off. I've kinda been talking to her about fish for the past few days, and it's really, really hot, which gives her a headache..

I'm 22 and I still have to clear everything with my mother! (Ah, the joys of living at home - but where am I going to find a place that lets me have seven cats?)

And I know what you mean about making the mother upset. I think if I say "Hey Ma! You gotta see this!" one more time she's gonna come in and beat me with the newspaper. I can't help it! The fish and snails and shrimp keep doing the cutest things! (Okay, seriously, I can't believe she hasn't thrown me out of the house yet. She told me ONE aquarium, and then I brought home a 20 gallon one night after work and just set it up without saying anything. She hasn't said a word about it yet..... :crosses fingers: Maybe I can work on her to let me get those hissing cockroaches I've been pining after!)

Good luck with the tank and the bettas! They are so addictive, aren't they?

Seven cats. We have three at my house.. two are mine, one of which is a kitten. She likes to stare at the fish.. but she's afraid of him, fortunately.

I know what you mean.. I saw this gorgeous fish on Aquabid, asked her to come see it.. she came over, glanced at it, and left. So.. she's at the end of her string for a while. She seems to think fish are the most boring thing in the world.

Most people do, unfortunately.....

(Yeah, seven. I worked at and volunteer at an animal shelter. Come to think of it, I did the same thing with the cats as I did with the 20 gallon. After bringing three cats home, she said no more, and I've been able to slowly sneak it up to seven..... Not that 20 pound cats and extremely hyper kittens (they're a year old now) can be hidden away. )

My family likes the fish. My sisters (one is 21 one is 23) are annoyed by it because I have 5 tanks and my mom wouldnt even let them get a betta when they were my age. I'm glad my mom says stuff sometimes and doesnt follow through, or I wouldnt have this 5.5 gallon killi tank . K.J. maybe wait a week and then just bring up the killis(or bettas) to her in general convorsation. Usually what works for me is to just be talking and wait for her to say something kind of fish related and then tell her you've been doing a lot of research the past few days and...Then tell her what you want and what you want to do with it.Good luck
