Lol change it now. I believe bright red gravel is a major turn-off for bettas! I wouldn't mind getting a betta myself, I like the red and blue dragon scale that has pics floating around somewhere, but I've never seen it's like in lfs near me. I think the flagtail was a fluke and I blame my ornate. Fingers crossed it wasn't a deliberate eye grab- it happened at night so I don't think the eye was targeted.

the male has made bubble nests before, and two have breeding stripes. I'm thinking I'm changing grAvel today or Sunday. I find females look a bit like miniature wolf fish and you can keep them in groups, and if your lucky you could keep a male with a group of females which looks awesome, I feel I succeeded thanks to my salicin balloon Molly that receives most of the aggression from the betta, and the fact my females 'look out' for eachother.
