    They are but they can tolerate low range of tropical temps in the upper 60'sF and with yours being in the 70'sF range they would work fine- even regular guppies would work in that temp

    Endlers and white clouds come to mind....depends on the tank size....also, shrimp can tolerate a bit cooler water...but too low and they may not reproduce and/or die..same with plants...you want to keep the temp at least in the upper 60's

    Get him out of the container that had poison in it and if you have anyway to get him in a tank with a filter and new activated charcoal for 24 hr would also help him...good luck

    Need help again!
    The plastic tub where I placed one of my bettas has traces of rat poison.
    He is now very pale, but still eating. He is very nervous and jumpy.
    He is still strong.

    What should I do??

    Thanks

    The breeder lives in a province far from where I am, and he rarely comes for a visit. He has a petshop here which a family member of his looks after. If they still don't breed they'll have to share a tank with my red eared slider turtle. lol

    Spawning and rearing your own Bettas can be fun and rewarding.....it will get easier as you go....good that you are getting young fish they are much easier to spawn..she may need more time-you should contact the breeder and see if you can find out her age....

    I don't know how old she is. I think she is less than a year old. I didn't ask the breeder i bought her from.

    I am hooked to betta breeding! Even though there are more disappointments that success, I really want to have bettas i bred myself. I am at work right now and I'm checking bettafish.com.. :D
