Yeah, I know. which sucks

that's why I might end up selling the baby boys when the get older..

Tis best to just have one male with some Neons, Because if u have a female you will have to section half of the tank off so they dont attack eachother.. they are both pretty agressive..

True dat. I don't know if they sell Neons around where I live but I will check it out!! I think I might get them instead!! How long do they live??

Neon tetra's are pretty common Tropical fish as alot of people like to use them for community tanks

So thats why i am getting some to go with a male betta (when i finally get him)

From Wikkipedia-While commercially bred neon tetras have adapted well to a wide range of water conditions, in the wild they inhabit very soft, acidic waters They can have a lifespan of up to ten years, normally about five in an aquarium.

Nice

Do they eat betta fish food too?

 

[Nicola]

Not fully sure

i know they eat tropical fish food.. would probably eat betta 'flakes' but the bettadont like those

i would have to see when i get my betta and find a good food for it ( cant remmeber which one Squishy said was good

) and see if they will eat it, i know they dont like floating food and wait for it to sink to the bottom
