Jamie logan Posted August 17, 2022 Share Posted August 17, 2022 Hey, i got a 7,9 gallon tank, with one female Betta in it, and I'd love to put something else in it, like dwarf rasboras for example! But i was wondering if this is possible? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FLFishChik Posted August 17, 2022 Share Posted August 17, 2022 That might not be enough space for a Betta and even the smallest Nano schooling fish - you might be able to get away with a small school of 5 or 6 Chili Rasbora. You could doShrimp as they don't have much of a bioload. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RockMongler Posted August 17, 2022 Share Posted August 17, 2022 I have a 10 gallon (female) betta tank, and I just recently added 1 kuhli loach (who ive seen wiggling about in all the Sußwassertang jungle) and 4 harlequin rasboras. I might add more rasboras later once they get settled in and I make sure my water chemistry is stable. The betta seemed slightly annoyed at first, but quickly got over it, and having the rasboras to act as a dither fish seems to help her feel even more comfortable. My cat and the betta like to get into staring matches, and the bettas behaviour has become even less spooked at the cat than before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anitstuk Posted August 17, 2022 Share Posted August 17, 2022 Smallish tank so you can't do much but you could try shrimp. Small bioload and they help with the algae and left over food. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EVoyager31 Posted August 18, 2022 Share Posted August 18, 2022 I have a 20G betta tank and my male betta has a handful of harlequin rasboras and they get along just fine! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
