Ummmmm...
Where did you find this info? I hope it's not on some "expert" site where people might actually follow that advice!

Something like bettatalk.name
I can't remember now, but yes, an 'expert' site lol, oh deary me

talk about over stocking....and they need to rethink the betta friends....from personal experience my danios don't bother my betta, he chases them about sometimes for fun, still lucky to have a non aggressive fish!
In two minds about my tetra at the moment though......they may possibly be leaving the aquarium, I've seen one take a few 'pot shots' at his tail fin the past week, no damage was done, but i'm afraid it will set off his fin rot which got the aquarium after a new fish was put in

we shall see......if it gets worse the tetra will be seperated so i can see if they need to go....and if they do....then back to the lfs they'll go and I'll find another replacement!

That is cruel, so many in a tiny space and a bad combination. Two fully grown angelfish have a hard time in a 20 gal, so 3 plus a betta in there?? And the two angelfish might pair off and kill the third angelfish. And two fish types with a lot of finnage... doesn't sound so fun. Swordtail isn't even spelled right. Redtail shark wouldn't even be able to turn around in one of those and I don't think they deal to well with sharing territory in small spaces.

It makes me so mad when people do this, i mean if your meant to be helping them give them the right info. I can see alot of dead fish coming from this "advice"

Trying so hard not to swear here

seems to me that its just info created to cause tention throughout the forums, as it will end up in most forums for people to comment on, so im not gunna bother to comment on the issue of the fish itself
