Hey there, i used to work in a aquarium and ill tell u that 80% of aquariums tell u to keep ur fighter in a bowl. But realisicly the are much happier in a heated tank (ive seen the proof) U can have a bit of water movement from a filter if u decide to put one in. But i wouldn't get a high powered one that's gonna blow him away. Just make sure u have some type of area where there would be less movement like a large patch of live plants or a hidey hole. Bettas come from Thailand, they are found in slow moving streams or even in shallow puddles along side the stream. Just thought i would say that :oD
Betta fish - Siamese fighter fish are not salt waters fish. But there is another breed of Betta which is called a marine betta and they are salt water fish.
Well betta fish cannot be in tap water. It's like poison to them. They have to have treated water. I found out my betta was suffering when he wouldn't eat anything. Betta like to be out in the open so they can see movement and action. The living room is a good place.
A betta fish should not be in water colder than 72F
No, Betta fish like clean, but not sterile water like all fish.
of course you do you need the fish to have WATER because every fish in the world needs water so the betta fish needs it to,to live so the betta fish does need a FILTER
Betta fish are fresh water fish. Most tropical fish are saltwater fish. Betta fish also only get along with a few fish.
you should put your betta fish in warm or room temp. water. it might be risky to put your betta in cold water!!!!
I'm afraid you can't! Sorry
The best water to keep your betta fish in is water from the tap that has been treated with a dechlorinatior. This removes harmful chemicals from the water but leaves behind all the minerals that betta fish need.
Any bigger fish, more aggressive fish, no water
Betta fish live in water that is 20 or 22 degree C.I know so because I have my own Betta fish.
No fish are not afraid of the dark like kids are.
Betta fish was first found in the rivers of Thailand.They are basically river water fish.......
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.
No,the betts fish will DIE
A clown fish is a saltwater fish, and a betta is a fresh water fish. I would not put them together.
Betta fish to not hibernate. If you fish is acting lethargic, make sure that the water is not too cold (78 to 80F is best), and that the water is clean.
Fresh water. === ===Yes they are freshwater fish.
In a breeding condition too much surface movement will hinder the bubble nest. Other water movement at other times are not really needed for this labyrinth fish, but aslong as not in extreme amounts should not be harmful.
A betta fish needs fresh water, and needs half of it changed once every 7 days.
A 20 - 25 percent water change every week is recommended for a betta. I use a product called "Betta Plus Conditioner" as an additive to provide great water for the fish to swim in.
Your betta fish probably lives in a bad water condition or some fish is biting your betta fish's fins.If the water is in bad conditions you should probably clean it and talk to a manager in a pet store about betta fishtail rotting or search it up on google ( search betta fish tail rotting and go to images.)
Some people do not believe it but the best water to use in your betta fish tank is tap water. Bottled and distilled water has been "purified" and does not have the minerals that your Betta fish needs. If your tap water is so bad that you do not even drink it, than use spring water.
Betta fish can simply rest at the surface of the water or they may rest on leaves of plants.
Yes a betta fish will grow back lost scales with time and clean water.
