Don't overlook female bettas either. One male gets kinf od lonely and boring
by himself;
fload a female in a plastic cup and he wakes right up. Or a half dozen
female bettas
make a nicer display than you might think especially if you get things like
cambodian
doubletails.

I saw a planted tank over the weekend with a bunch of just common blue/green
females. Stunning beyond words. I was quite surprised.
