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.

How likeable!! 🙂
Oh, yes, coccina would also be hard for me to resist. And brownorum……….. But my first aim is to find a male for my lonely Betta persephone-female, whose male died when I was in hospital.
I am not quite sure if it might have been stress that killed him. It was my first try to keep paros and Betta together – they lived in a tank with the P. pahuensis pair, 30 liter, with rampantly growing floating plants on the surface. The males began to argue when I went to hospital, and I lost both males while both females stayed healthy and well. This leads me to rather keep Paros and Betta separately at the moment ………. though I may be wrong and interspecific/-generic stress was not even the reason.
