Title: Siamese fighting fish tankmates
Post by: Hazdaz21 on November 02, 2014, 04:43:44 PM

Should a Siamese fighting fish (https://www.thinkfish.co.uk/fish/siamese-fighting-fish-male.html) get on ok with black mollies? Trying to make sure it will be ok with our existing fish.

I'm not too sure about bettas and mollies. Mollies like hard alkaline water while bettas prefer their water softer.

But as long as the tank is big enough for mollies, you could give it a try.

I have to say in my MA I saw a betta flagging away at black mollies in the tank next door.
