Who Gives A Fish Forums

Yep, otos are chill. Also, cherry shrimp won't touch your plants, and they're fun to watch. Just gotta watch out for bigger fish picking on 'em. My betta leaves 'em alone, but it's hit or miss.

I've had betta's before and this does look like tail biting to me. Have you checked the water parameters to make sure everything is in order?

Got my betta 5 days ago and his fins looked fine then - pretty sure it's just tail biting, but I wanna make sure.
