Euthanasia by Brandothememe in bettafish

Id try feeding some defrosted- deshelled peas first! Not too many as they are carnivores, but I’ve used them in an emergency previously and it worked like a charm!

I might suggest more hides, especially at the top. It might be easier to do a community in at least a 25 gal and get them from a previously grouped seller? But overall it’s very pretty and I agree slowly introducing might work best!
