    Right, Ok let me explain.

    I went to pets at home twice today and didnt have much luck, they sold goldfish bowls but that was about it they DID have a pet carrier which I've found online too I got the second biggest but they only had one and it was on offer and they wont be getting more in unfortunatly!



    I got quoted on a divider at £7.50 but getting to the shop if another story because I dont drive and buses on sunday are a nightmare so atm they have a piece of plastic dividing them up in the bigger tank so they each have their own space.

    I cant actually buy online because I dont use my card on my computer because I dont think its secure enough in that way so they will have to make do atm with that they all have, hopefully I can find 2more tanks like the one above so I can have them in their own tanks rather than a big bulky tank and a small one.

    I also got some more gravel and some plastic plants today along with an ornimental bridge and a ship wreck boat so I've had fun decorating the tank! I got some stress coat and they seem to be ok in their own spaces but its only a temperary thing, I cant physically do much for them until monday I can look tomorrow in my local town they have one petshop and thats it! I havent slept properly for 4 days now and over that time I've had about 8 hours sleep and worrying about my bettas isnt helping so Im trying my hardest to make it liveable for them and I dont want people to think Im mistreating them because im not Im doing the best I physically can do

    Decorations are great. They help the females establish their own territory. In my tank, each girl has their own little cave or hiding spot. Make sure decorations are not hollow and have no space to get stuck. if they are hollow, fill the hollow area with filter media or something, because if they can swim into the hollow decoration, they will, and they will get stuck.

    Thanks, I've made sure I got them big enough for them to fit in I've seen both go through plenty of times so its a good fit
