Hello Stefanie, – I think it is very helpful what you are writing in the thread, – about how it was possible to ‘save’ the two fish that showed so little life, – thats very very good to hear.
I hope you find out what went wrong, though I realize that can be difficult. But many things can happen during transport that can cause a too stressfull situation for the fishes, – other than cold also.
And by the way, thank you for showing those photos of the betta hendra, – wow, that is a beutiful little fish.
I just yesterday could not resist the temptation of buying 4 betta coccina when I accidentially passed them in a shop. I went out shopping for clothes, but I came back with four b.coccina.
🙂 I have been looking for them for some time though, so it wasnt entirely impulsive. They are at the moment settling slowly in a small tank. My plan is to mix them into my bigger (surplus) linkei tank. I have tried this before, and it seemed to work well.
