so i was looking into getting a betta sarrotiy for my 30 gallon hex tank and i had a couple qustions how many van i get are there cettaint types not to mix also any suggestions and tips as im not that firmiliar whith bettas mainly just cichlids lol
I spoke to a breeder once about sororities & he had had some luck with them. In a 30 gallon, you could put as many as 10. He suggested 6-7 for a 20 gal. Slightly overstocking helps redistribute aggression. He suggested getting females all from the same brood as they tend to get along better. But remember, they will still fight. And may still stress each other out enough to kill each other. You should have a backup plan in case it doesn't pan out. Which would mean 10+ spare tanks ready to go.
so then what would you put in this tank i have had it for about 3 years and had convicts in it put its shape is just so crazy really not sure what to put in it any suggestions
