Not nessessarily. Bettas tend to get listless and lazy if you don't change their water often, and if they have no stimulation. Theres a great product out there called a Floating Betta Exercise Mirror that will make your betta think there is another betta in the tank. It can be used to stimulate the fish into more activity. You can find them online, at www.bigalsonline.com (product #25109).

How can you know that a goldfishes asleep?

Betta fish sleep on the bottom of the tank. I've never seen one close its eyes but they will often rest on the bottom when there is no action going on around them. Betta like to be around movement. That is why we have my betta fish in our living room.

How long do male betta's live for in a bowl?

If you take really good care of you male betta fish then he could live up to 5years. Like, if you change their water like twice a week and if you feed them about twice a day and if you buy a little plant that they sell at pet stores,it's a little plant that goes at the bottom of your fish bowl and it gives the fish oxygen. But, if you decide to not take good care of your betta fish then he could only live for a couple of monthes. Hope that this helped you.

Can one girl betta and one boy betta be put in the same one gallon tank?

The male will kill the female after he spawns her. If she won't spawn he will still kill her. No male Betta will allow another Betta (male or female) to live in its vicinity. So the answer is NO.
