Betta in an 8 gallon Community Tank

what happened to sky?

First of all. You can CLEARLY see your other fish nipping at the poor females Betta's fin. Also this is a lot bigger than a 8 gallon, not kidding.

@CostsUp umm petco book shelf aquariums are either 6 or 8, i thought it was 6 but maybe i was wrong, anyways they are long but not very tall.

[whiteboypatrickkelly]

ya know I got this same tank and they say it is 6.6 but I had to refill a milk jug about 8times to fill it, I dont get it why do they say the tank is 6.6 or 6.5 when its more like 7 to 10 gal?

[whiteboypatrickkelly]

hows your betta did you move him or did he die, how did it work out having a betta with the fin nippers?

[musty1066]

The tank looks really nice but your other fish are nipping your betta's fins and the filters too strong for him.

[anonymischief]

does anyone know if you can put male bettas with male fancy guppies?

[OrIGiNaLJaCk3Dx]

@anonymischief

no

[Zuricane8]

It looks like you've got barbs in there which are notorius for fin nipping. Just thought I'd throw that out there.

[YingYingK]

its actually a 6.6 Gal, I have one too- great setup tho =]

[Fedaykin4321]

The little fish certainly aren't helping but that betta is also either very old or very sick.

[casioexz1080]

I don't think you should keep 'fin nippers' in the same tank as your Betta.

Sooner or later, he'll get his revenge.

poor betta is being hunted

[rluix]

that looks alot more than 8 gallons

[guest0123456789]

about 25 seconds in the red fish is attacking the betta's caudal and again it 50 seconds into it. Why has no one pointed that out! Poor little betta :(

[Thomas55Pham]

its a shortfinned betta i guess... not the longfinned one

[VindiktiveKaos]

@guest0123456789 cherry barbs are classified as semi aggressive ): shouldn't be in the same tank as a betta

[crazykyle401]

what other kind of fish do you have in there

[tppotarun]

r those cory catfish?

[jervaj]

teh betta swims healty but the shape of his fins and colors are poor...

[wolfboyp54]

kul tank. love the cherry barbs

[TheConsensus]

This is a nice tank for a betta. :) They like the long tanks. I don't have room or I would've gotten a long tank too.
