Hello,

I already have one male betta.. I was offered another male betta from
someone who can't keep him... (moving)

I'm running out of tanks and tank space.. is it ok to put both betta in
the
same tank (5 gal tank) with a mesh partition between them?

or would that be too cruel and stressful since they'll keep flaring at
eachother through the screen?

Linda


Decorate the tank with some tall plants, slate, etcetera, so that they don't
have to see each other all the time and they should be ok. Also, a glass or
acrylic divider would probably be better, and easier to keep clean.
