Suitable
Tank Mates for Betta Splendens |
Here are a few suggestions. Please
keep in mind that many bettas are different and some may get along fine
with these fish where others will not.
Mollies
Cherry Barb
Clown Loach
Zebra Danio

Bala Shark**
Platies

Plecostomus
*Some Bettas have been known to eat these,
others have not.
I have successfully kept many females and a male with them,
but others have not.
**Will eventually grow very large and may become a danger to your
betta(s) |
Just keep in mind that
bettas have long fins so keep away from any fin-nipping fish. I have
heard of people keeping them with Angelfish, but I have heard many
horror stories as well. When keeping female bettas in a tank together,
remember to give them plenty of hiding places and plant life to hide in.
Java Moss is a good choice for this. |
