I wanted a table top fountain for my living room, but the one I wanted turned out to be plastic, yuck. I read the thread about Bettas, and decided it would be nice to have a small aquarium again. I found a cute little 2 gallon purple one, and a beautiful multi colored betta to go in it. He is so cute. He will come right up and look at you when you enter the living room, and will stay nose to nose with the cats. Pepper, Fluffy, and Scooter are fascinated by him, and have not tried to go after him, so I cleared off the rest of the book case so they can sit up there and watch him.
I have a few questions for those experienced with bettas or aquariums in general. Can you put males and females in the same tank without them fighting? Do I need an algae eater or some sort of tank cleaning fish in such a small tank?
The person that sold me my big tank said they will be ok with any fish that does not have flowing fins. I had a big male betta in with black mollies, and they did just fine. I know 2 gallons is a small tank, but he looks so lonely in there by himself.
