Betta fish in a community tank
A betta fish in a big community tank! Bettas can't live together, but in a 10 gallon tank or more, they can often times be compatible with other small peaceful fish! Be careful about guppies though--those big tails look too much like other bettas.

Do you know the betta fishes history
Did you know that the "bettas come from puddles" is actually a myth created by a mistranslation? Bettas in the wild are often found in paddies--rice paddies to be exact! And while rice paddies are shallow,
they are long and make up hundreds of gallons! Their labyrinth organ allows them to breathe air while in stagnant water, though they do appreciate room to swim and stretch their fins.
