Bettas are by nature round in the body. It eh fish is kept in a small container it will however probably suffer through lack of swim space. The basic rules for successfull fish keeping are. :- 1 inch of fish needs a minimum of 1 gallon of water. (A Betta is at least a 3" fish so it needs a minimum of 3 gallons of water. 10 gallons is better.) :- Every tank needs a permananently running cycled filter. :- Every tank needs at least 50% of its water replaced every week. Keepyour water at the right temperature and follow the above rules and your fish stand a reasonable chance of survival. Fail in any of them and I can guarantee that your fish will have constant health problems.

Can you use real seashells in a betta bowl?

Yes. First boil the shells in a pot on the stove. The heat gets rid of any bacteria or germs. You can aso put them in the rinse cycle in a dish washer, without any other dishes. (the soap is poisonous to your fish) Do not use any shells that curl or wrap over. Your betta's fins can get stuck. Use flat sheels. After washing them in the pot or dishwasher, allow them to dry over night. Then place them in your fish bowl.
