Is Bette fish saliva poisonous?

betta are not harmful to people and most tropical fish. However, there are some very common fish that are poisonous. Most of the common plecos with spines can be toxic to tropical fish if they are dumb enough to peck at it. If you feel that another fish you own will get sick from being around your betta, odds are the two can live together happily and healthily. If another pet, like a cat or dog swallowed your betta, I wouldn't worry. I have never heard of pet poisoning from eating tropicals.
