    I made my own DIY betta divider with my mum. I don't keep bettas anymore but the divider took too much effort to get rid of now ahahaha.

    Hi, The tank looks do good. I had 3 bettas but since last month and this month I lost all of them. I taking a break on bettas and maybe some time in the future I will try but not sure. Can't wait to see the bettas. Omg..she is so cute and getting big they grow up fast. Happy holidays to you.

      That is not surprising. All your betta fish that you buy from pet stores die with in a year. I doubt you'll wait before getting more fish.

    Hi Sheila, Thank you so much for your informative videos. Could you tell me the name of the floating plant that you have floating on the top of your tanks. Approx 8.54 - 9 .30 mins into the video . Its a oval with white roots. I cannot find any reference to it any where. I would love to know its name. Thanks again .😊

    Thank you for the new video! 😊 2 questions; First, where do you buy your bettas from? (Looking for a reputable establishment/breeder) Second, do you have any suggestions on how to make sure the lids are tight enough to prevent bettas from jumping the dividers?

    • @Lifewithpets72
      @Lifewithpets72  4 роки тому +2

      Thank you. Check out Lisa and John at keep fish keeping.com . If you have Instagram and on UA-cam they’re K G Tropicals.
      Unfortunately with most stand lids you have to lower the water level. Our tank dividers do sit high in the tank but there is still a risk if the lid is not flat and we recommend the water level lowered. Making your own is an option too.

    I know this video is older but I was hoping you could answer a question. I just purchased a kit with your dividers and i don't plan to fully seal them so there will be water flow through them. Do I still need to get a small heater for each section or would a heater thats rated for a 20 gallon aquarium still work?

    • @Lifewithpets72
      @Lifewithpets72  Рік тому +1

      Thank you. If it’s being split 3 ways one heater in the center should be enough.

    I have your dividers. I've used them for several purposes and they have been so helpful. I recently got two bettas.... They are stressing each other out. I didn't silicone the dividers in, but the swim up and down the sides which makes me think they can see each other. Any suggestions? Also I'm getting a few more bettas....I don't want to do a sorority and would prefer to have them in their own areas. Have you had and experience/difficulty with keeping males and females in the same tank ( of course divided) while quite a tight fit... Some water is exchanged. I've added tannins to one section and over three days it eventually spreads along the tank. I have new bettas coming in next week and want to house them with the least stress. Thanks

    • @yiacrazy

      I can silicone the dividers in, but I'm running short on time. Between letting the silicone set and setting up the tank.. I won't have enough time.

    • @Lifewithpets72
      @Lifewithpets72  4 роки тому

      Making sure the tank is heavily planted will help. Over time they should settle. Having males and females in the same tank is a hot topic. We have done it several times and have not had any issues at all. We used the no holes divider and the tanks were very heavily planted. Others have done it too with the same results. That said it may not suit all bettas so if it’s something you plan to do I’d recommend a back up plan.
