Should you put a mirror beside your betta tank?
Each time a Betta flares and puts on a display it is reputed to shorten his lifespan. I would not advise anyone to place a mirror permanently in view of a male Betta because the fish would obviously feel under constant threat and could easily die from stress.
What should you do if your betta is sick and the sick i mean is that he isn't flaring and not eatting and I had him for a couple weeks .?
Bettas need to be looked after properly if you want them to look good and live properly There are some basic rules for keeping all kinds of fish and that includes Bettas. The rules are. :- 1 inch of fish needs at least 1 gallon of water. :- Every tank needs a permanently running cycled filter. :- Every tank needs at leadt 50% of its water replaced every week. Follow the rules and the fish should be OK. Fail to follow the rules and I can guarantee that your fish will be constantly getting sick and will live a shortened lifespan.
What if your fighting fish isn't eatting?
It's either sick, or if it never ate it at all it doesn't like the food you're giving it. Bettas can be as picky as cats that way.
