How do you take care of a betta in a ten gallon tank?

Answer 1

you hve made a good choice already by buying a decent-sized tank for the betta. as for care, you will need gravel, an aquarium light, and most importantly a small powerfilter or other type of adequate filter. bettas are very hardy, but you still need to do water changes every few weeks and feed a specialized betta food. in a ten gallon tank, you have room for a couple tankmates for your betta. i would suggest a small school of rasboras or a couple small loaches. both of these species will most likely not provoke your betta and are native to the same areas as it.
