Well you a betta fish can stay in a bag until you buy a tank for the betta. If you put a betta in a car and it's like 105 degrees out side they can die less than 2 minutes because it's so hot and the water will become hot. If it's like winter they can die too because the waiter will go low and it's not the right temperature. Hope it help you.

Does bettas move a lot?
Betta fishes like any other fish can get stressed by movements. In fact one of the most stressful experiences for a fish is travel from the pet store to a new house. So, depending on the length of the travel, yes, you might be able to take your betta fish. If its a short travel, make sure you double bag and bag again with a bubble wrap and cover it with something dark (so the fish doesn't get stressed by the outside). I don't recommend taking the betta on long distance or on flights. Hope I answered your question. Source: Owner of betta fishes

Well, the key is to get the fish used to the environment in the aquarium you are adding it to. What I normally do is, (I buy the fish in bags of water) I put the bag with the fish in the tank and let it float there for about a half an hour to an hour to let the temperatures equalise., and then open the bag and let the fish in Another method is to put the fish into a bucket with the water that you bought it with, and then put in roughly an equal amount of water from the tank into the bucket, wait for about half an hour and then put the fish in

Can a betta be kept with a Cory catfish?
No! Betta males are peacefull fish and mix well with most other species. They will only fight with other Betta males. never mix a male betta with any other type of fish if you want to keep them alive..male bettas a solitary fish and most likely will kill anything in there with it..i know believe me...i heard that you can mix male bettas with ghost shrimp,neon tetras,and Cory cats..my betta has killed all of the above..i put some neon tetras and Cory cats with him and within 5 seconds the betta was killing a Cory cat the above is incorrect. but the first one is right. What you have to do is when you get your betta, but him in a ziplock, half air half water; and but the ziplock in the aquarium. I left mine in their for a week ( yes, i fed him ) until he calmed down and realized the other fish weren't a threat or other bettas. Then open the bag and let him swim out. Yes, he may nip when a Cory cat comes near him or chase a fancy guppie or tetra, but he will calm down after about a day. If he dosent return him or put him back in the ziplock. Also don't put the fish in the betta's cage, but the betta in the fish'es cage using the ziplock method. The betta will be more aggressive if fish invade his territory, but if he is in new territory he will be less aggressive.
Can you cross breed a guppy with a platy?
yes, sometimes you can. It just depends on how mellow your betta is, and if you have enough planting in your aquarium so the platy can hide ( just in case). I would also recommend you get more than one platy, again just in case. For the most part though, they should get along pretty well, just keep in mind that no matter what you put in with a male betta, it won't like it, they like to be solitary. I hope this helped!
Can a betta fish live with a baby regular turtle?
There are 2 reasons why you should not grow your Betta fish with a baby turtle: 1. Amphibians poison the water for fish 2. Turtles, especially baby turtles like to eat live, flashy things. Chances are, if you place your Betta with a baby turtle, it will be long gone before any pollution affects it... If you have an older, smaller turtle, it may work. Older turtles like to eat plants rather than live things, and if you have a LARGE tank, with water no deeper than 10 inches, and lots of places for your Betta to hide in case your turtle gets a little curious, it will work. Just make sure to introduce your fish to your turtle slowly, by placing it in a small, see through plastic bag inside the aquarium to get the turtle used to the sudden movements of the fish. good luck!

How do you move a betta from the bag to a new tank?
Let the tied bag with air in it float in the new tank water for 15-20 minutes to equalize temperature and slowly add tank water in 20 minute intervals to the bag. Don't pour the bag water in the tank, it will add any contaminates already in the bag, use a fish net to make the transfer.

Will it hurt your betta fish if you don't wait 24 hours to put it in the tank?
The betta itself doesn't have to wait 24 hours, but the water in the tank needs to have had conditioner put in it to take out the chlorine and ammonia. When you want to put the fish in, float the bag it is in in the tank water for at least half an hour so they reach the same temperature. Then add a little of the tank water to the bag, so he gets used to the new water chemistry. Wait a while longer, and then you can release it into the tank. If the change in temperature and chemistry are too sudden, the fish will go into shock and possibly die.
