i bought my sir betta a lady betta and he's being mean
 
ok so i went to petco last nihgt to buy my sir betta, tapatio a girlfriend
becaus ei thought he was depressed and needed some lovin. at first when i put
her in there with him he was being flirty and gentkleman like but then he
satrted nipping at her and i dont understand becaus ei separated them and now
he keeps staring at her, his fins ares tiff like whne he gets mad but i dont
know if hes mad or excited. should i try and put them together again? i put
the lady betta(her name is WOW) with 2 little goldfish and they werent
fighting but she kept eyeing out one of them. i also went on a rampage and
bought 6 goldfish. i have 4 niow because my neighbor put the 2 big ones with
his fishies since he has a bigger tank. how long will my betta girl survive
if she doesnt have a filter? the thing is, i dont have money at all right now

putting tapatio and WOW together again any suggestions? =/ i really love lall

No. You can't them together unless you have a large tank with plenty of
hiding places for her.

How large is your tank? Each GF will need approximately 10 gallons of water
by one year of age as they get large unless sick and or badly underfed.
Also GF are cool water fish and bettas like warm water. Not a good mix.

how long will my betta girl survive
if she doesnt have a filter? the thing is, i dont have money at all right
now
