I love betta fish I've currently got 4

Congratulations on keeping a betta fish properly. >(>^-^)
Those tiny little bowls and cups are just no good for the little fellows. I wish more were kept like this.

Mhm! I always try to research when I get a pet the best minimum of care, and then make that my absolute minimum. That's why my guy has 5.5gal, hidey places, fake and real plants, and some tankmates to harass.

I have an all black one named Ninja. I keep him in a ten gallon, but he doesn't have any tank mates yet. He also only has one hiding place as of yet. But I recently purchased a little hammock to add to the some of that empty space.

It isn't anything that they are required to have, but I'd recommend it, as little is cuter than watching them lay about on it. ^-^

The plant on the right is real and when it was up higher he'd sleep on the big leaf. I'm going to wire it to the shipwreck at some point so that it stays up high for him. As it stands he likes to sleep at the bottom near the front, it's fun to come in and catch him dozing, it's even more fun when one of the shrimp pokes him accidentally because his immediate response is 'FUCK YOU!' and charge.

They do have attitude. ^-^ That's why mine lives by himself at the moment. I was nervous about what to put in with him. A snail or two definitely sounds safe, but I'm waiting for the brand new tank feel to wear off before I add a snail. Haha, it's true. I can't see the ghosties! But that's a beautiful fish, though. Props for the great looking tank!

I would suggest getting a bland colored snail, our first snail looked like mud (he died of ??? after a month) and now we have a bright orange one and Ares likes to practice flaring at him. I almost had to move the little guy to a separate tank to stop him from flaring all the time!

Hmm...That is interesting. I guess if their too vibrantly colored, the bettas think they're a threat. That's very cute, actually. Your fish needs anger management, lol. Thanks for the tip too. I had no idea they would react like that. ^-^ I'll get a nice brown one that will camouflage with the surroundings better.

Yeah I guess he was almost using him as a practice dummy, cause it was clear he knew it wasn't a betta, but he still really wanted to show it who was boss!

I like this fish. He's got moxy!

He's a character. Always comes to greet me when I take a few minutes to watch the tank, checks out anything set next to it, and eats food off my finger. Who'da thunk I'd get so attached to a pet I can't even pet?

I think you could let him brush up against your finger once or twice maybe. ^-^
