Ok. . . I actually have some more questions, now that I think about it!! I've researched Bettas a lot, I think they're totally gorgeous. My last Betta was very very spoiled and loved. I'm thinking of getting a few Bettas and. . maybe breeding, a tinsey bit. I know I'll have a place to sell the babies, when I start working at this pet store I know there are a few breeders here (like Kara), so here's a few questions for you! Advice is soooo appreciated

I really want to get two Aquatic Snails to clean the tank and keep the Betta company. Would Ghost Shrimp be okay? Has anyone had good/bad experience with Ghost Shrimp and Bettas? I also want live plants, probably Aponogetons and Java Ferns. . any other plants I should consider? Also, as far as food, are Freeze Dried Bloodworms and Black Worms a decent diet. . . or should I also feed (thawed) frozen foods or baby brine shrimp?

I know it sounds crazy, but I was considering ordering a Betta online. I really really love Butterfly Bettas, Marbled Bettas and other colors/fin types that are just not in pet stores. All of the fish I've seen in pet stores are veil tailed and multi-colored. Would it be dumb to start with a more expensive rare Betta boy? Since I'll be ordering one male fish, should I go ahead and order a female at the same time? ugh. . . now I'm just confusing myself . I would love to have a female and a male, even if I decide not to breed them at all. I've been looking at aquariumfish.net, bettatalk.com, and a bunch of other sites. Any recommendations? I would love some advice on this. . . my parents love Bettas and would love 2 or more, I don't think they understand why I'm obsessing over it though ~_^
