Guest Posted November 25, 2008 Report Share Posted November 25, 2008 I've seen alot of people keep their fighters in bottle so they don't get attacked. I tried with mine in one and his crowning sort of rotted away. Does this happen to your ones? what do you guys to stopo yours going like this?

Adrienne Posted November 25, 2008 Report Share Posted November 25, 2008 yes, I have lots of holes and also have about 4500 litres an hour of water movement - 2 external filters, 2 power heads and an internal uv steriliser moving water in the tank, the tank itself has about 140 litres of water in it and at the most 50 bottles.

Discusguru Posted November 25, 2008 Report Share Posted November 25, 2008 yes, I have lots of holes and also have about 4500 litres an hour of water movement quote] Didn't notice any holes on you the last time I saw you. You must have done a pretty good job concealing them lol. ron Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whetu Posted November 25, 2008 Report Share Posted November 25, 2008 My boyfriend had a fighter in his tank and he put a pretty glass bottle in the bottom. His fighter would come & go from the bottle whenever it wanted to - it spent most of its time in the bottle though. Funny how they seem to like those confined spaces.

Jaide Posted November 27, 2008 Report Share Posted November 27, 2008 How big (or small) are these bottles? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 28, 2008 Report Share Posted November 28, 2008 I thin they're about 1.5 ltrs. I've given up on the bottle I've now set up a tank with a divider that has my red CT on one side with a red Ct girl and a dark purple/blue VT boy with a aqua/blue VT girl who's twice as big as him but he's really aggro so I think he can take care of himself.
