Which aquarium would be better?

Hello

I'd like to get a Siamese fighting fish. Since the two aquariums I have to choose from are relatively similar in price, I was wondering which would be better. Either a 54L aquarium (60x30x30) or a 24L (40x25x24), since fighting fish are best kept in relatively small tanks.

Could I theoretically keep a kafi in a 54L tank with calm fish species? If so, which ones?

Why do lay people always have a boring fighting fish? And why do you have to associate this with other fish? Why do you buy small aquariums?

What’s going wrong? Are there aggressive advertising, is it intended as a prestige object?

Sorry, but reading these questions every day, excites me. We’re talking about animals, not about lifeless objects that you can see in the store, buy yourself and forget in the closet.

After all, he deals with the subject before buying fish.

Other questions only when the animals are half dead.

Then it doesn’t bother me if I can give people info in advance and then they don’t uselessly heat fish/tot torment

I see you. And then I get to know in the zoo trade that all the advice is forgotten, because you find all the colorful fish so great and want to have from each one…

Unfortunately, I often see when I look at fish in the aquria department.

For short fins or well floating, smooth veil fins, the 60’s basin is better because it is more like the natural precinct size. The larger basin also offers more space for plants and thus has more biological reserves for filterless operation.

For only limited floatable shapes with totally disintegrated or deformed fins such as Crowntail, the smaller basin is better. Kafis always patrol through their entire area and if the area is too large, this is too exhausting for these blurred forms. They tend to migrate or weak infections in too large pelvis and to reduce their service life. For safety reasons, it is advantageous to equip the small basin with a filter which, however, can hardly flow. A small backpack filter is ideal for this. Alternatively, a small, air-operated sponge filter.

Socialization is difficult to impossible. There are Kafis who even kill snails when they get into their territory. Others react totally distorted to roommates and do not dare out of the rear corner anymore. It also uses little when the roommates are calm, they are not tolerated in the precinct. Only in larger basins can quiet, non-territorial roommates be held, who understand the threatening bears and avoid unabated. However, this is not optimal, because it is always stress for the Kafi that damages health and shortens life.

Hi.

It doesn’t matter

I’d rather not get rid of the fighting fish.

The betta should be kept individually.

Even calm fish stress him as they are single-handed.

But I would still advise the 54s and plant beautifully lush.

Then you better put some nice snails on it.

Please also note that bettas does not actually have any flow, so please do without filters or take sponge filters with air lifters.

I would insure on the filter and prefer to change more often water because then no further technology is necessary except lighting and heating.

So 60 liters for an aquarium are already the lowest cot limit (but Kies deco and technology remain only 44 liters)

It may be that there are quarantine pelvis or daisy basin vll sensible lasting, but this is animal torture…. or you want to live your life long on 2qaudrat meters

For all fish. Whether Paedocypris or houses? Also for all screws, shrimps, etc?

It’s just bullshit. Sorry.
