Well, for my Betta fish Sara I recommend using real plants so it could sleep there like a butterfly.
fake plants my fish loves them
In their natural habitat they live in puddles in Asia.But in a fish tank I would put some smooth gravel with one or two fake plants.
Betta fish are naturally carnivores. They don't eat plants in the wild (this is why bettas in jars are so bad). If it will eat it, however, It shouldn't be bad for it.No Bettas are Insectivorous.
Well, it all depends on the size of the tank, and whether or not it's filtered: * For 1/2 gallons, non filtered tanks - 100% water changes every week. * For 1 gallon - 2 gallon, non filtered tanks - 100% water changes weekly * For 2.5 gallon - 5 gallon, filtered tanks - 25% water changes weekly * For 10 gallon, filtered tanks - 10% to 25% weekly water changes THINGS TO REMEMBER: - Always use water the same temperature as before. Betta's are quite sensitive to water temperature fluctuations - Always use dechlorinator or let the water set for at least 24 hours before using. Never use distilled water - Never use soap when cleaning the tank - For smaller tanks, use a turkey baster (or something similar) to get rid of extra food and waste. For larger tanks, try gravel vacuums.
Yes you can put a Betta and bottom feeders together in the same tank. I have two Chinese algae eaters and one male Betta in a 5gl tank and no one bothers each other. The bottom feeders need plants (preferable LIVE) and rocks or something they can hide under and sleep in themselves. I also have a Betta hammock (fake leave with a suction cup to attache to the side of the tank) that you can get at any pet store. My male Betta loves the hammock! One bottom feeder lives in a live plant and the other bottom feeder lives under a rock.

it varies. most of it is in the sea, which you know it is filled with animals and plants. it is also in streams, lakes, and rivers. it also is mostly in tubs or tanks.Tanks have filters and heaters. aslo a basking platform. it is filled with water of course. tanks and tubs are mostly filled with fake plants and decorations.
Even though Betta's are seen housed in small tanks you should house your Betta in a minimum 2 gallon tank or a 5 gallon tank, while 10 gallon tanks are preferred. They do not like water movement so you do not have to have a filter, if you do it should have barely any movement, bettas are not built to swim against a current. Never house a betta in one of those set ups where there is a plant in the vase as they can not survive on that as food. Always keep your male Betta out of a tank that already has a male Betta as they will fight with another betta (to the death if unchecked) the male will chase the females if under age and try to fight them. However if a female Betta is fully grown, the male will chase her to mate. Make sure you have a few items in the tank, a fake plant or decoration where they can hide and have some privacy. Females can be grouped in groups of 4-8 depending on how many gallons of water you have to spare. Males can only shave a tank if they have a barrier of some sort or separators, which can be bought rather cheap and most any pet store.
A good place to find fake plants will be on eBay and Amazon where there will be a big range to choose from. Moreover, one can visit shops such as Homebase and Tesco as they will stock decorative fake plants too.
If you want your betta fish to live a long time you have to take care of it properly. Clean out the water in the bowl once a week or if it starts to look cloudy(also when you clean the bowl, clean the rocks and fake plants). Bettas like plants to hide in and feel safe, so it's important to get a plant. Don't ever put two male bettas in a bowl together because they will fight and kill one another. You can put a male and female betta together, they might not like one another, but they should be fine together. You can also put several female bettas together in a bowl and they will be perfectly fine. Remember to feed your betta a little bit each day and if they finish what you gave them you can feed them a little bit more, but don't over feed a lot because it can make them sick.
yes he live plants will help produce oxygen. over fake plants
