    s'ling in betta cup?

    Hey Forum

    I just bought a 1/2" chaco golden knee s'ling from the Pamona Pet Show, and it was in a little salsa cup. I was wondering; since it would be easier for me to feed it, to put it in a tall betta fish cup. Good idea, or bad idea?

    Congrats on your new T I don't know what a "tall betta fish cup" looks like but if it is indeed tall then I personally would not put him in that. Unless you fill it up with a lot of substrate. Do you have pics of what your T is in now and what you want to put it in?

    That is what it is in.


    That is what I was thinking of.

    Those are too large for a 1/2" s'ling. It's harder for them to find their prey in a large enclosure and it stresses them out. Use a small delicup/medicine cup.
