Hello again!
Honestly, after having a 10g for almost a year, I wonder why I never had one before! I feel like there's so much more I can do with it. Or maybe that's the gentler fish I am housing in it that let me do so.
Anyways, in my aquarium I was housing seven gold cloud minnows and an accidental bristlenose pleco. He was only in there for a short time until I gave him away. My cloud minnows actually began disappearing and I finally found out why. My cat was going fishing in the tank. So now I have a small group of three cloud minnows.
I took this opportunity to get new fish. I've been interested in having a sorority of female bettas. My tank is heavily planted and I thought there would be plenty of hiding places.
So now I have four female bettas, a fifth should be on the way soon, and three cloud minnows. I've been monitoring the situation and find that the minnows help disperse the attention of the bettas. However, I want what's best for both fish. My question is, should I repurchase the minnows so I'll have a schooling group of 7, or just get rid of the minnows in general.
I checked with AqAdvisor and it had the standard info on betta, so I'm asking if anyone has experience with housing these two together.
