Noo_Naa Posted October 7, 2007 Report Share Posted October 7, 2007 I have a siamese fighter and he has been doing fine in my community tank until recently when I got 3 blind cave tetra who I suspect have been eating his fins , if someone can please let me know if these fish would eat my fighter and if so how can I stop it, that would be great Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpidersWeb Posted October 8, 2007 Report Share Posted October 8, 2007 You can't. Most fast moving fish will eat the finnage. Siamese Fighters (Bettas) are normally best on a tank by themselves, with maybe a few bottom dwellers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noo_Naa Posted October 8, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 8, 2007 right thanks, strange thing is he shares the tank with alot of other tetras and has been fine until the blind tetras came along. ive got another question: the fighter has started making bubble nests around the tank, is it safe to get a female for him or will he kill the other fish?
