No, if your fish has ragged fins it likely has fin rot. Add some melafix to the water according to the dosing instructions on the bottle. And perform several small water changes. Bettas are very susceptible to fin rot.
Some common types of betta fish include crowntail, halfmoon, plakat, and double tail. These types vary in fin shape, coloration, and tail appearance. Each type has its own unique characteristics that make them popular among betta fish enthusiasts.
No. The "fighting fish" ie Betta, will only fight members of his own species. Oscars will eat Bettas.
I own both male and female.
goldfish. Definatly goldfish. Or betta
Betta fish are typically aggressive and territorial, so they are best kept alone in a tank to prevent conflict with other fish. Mixing bettas with other fish can lead to stress, injury, or even death for the betta and other fish. It is recommended to provide bettas with their own space to thrive.
It is a misconception that betta fish do not get along with other fish. While intolerant to their own species, bettas can get along with other fish so long as they are not easy to mistake for another male betta - such as fancy guppies - or fin-nipping fish like many tetras that often go for long-finned fish. Female bettas can be housed with guppies, however.
NO!!! Lizards should only be kept with other lizards of their own species. Some kinds of lizards are fine by themselves. Waste from the lizard is poisonous to fish. Also, Lizards do not need a lot of water, where would the fish go? Lizards don't swim. The lizard would eat the fish. Male betta fish are best housed by themselves, or in a 10 gallon or bigger tank with neon tetras, or other gentle community fish. Also, never house a male betta with another male betta, or a female betta. They will fight until their death. Females can be kept together. Three do fine in a ten gallon tank. NEVER put bettas with fish that have long flowing or colorful fins, the betta will mistake it for another betta and kill it.
well you first need at least a one gallon fish bowl and fish gravel and plants and stuff for them to hide in. fish food, and give them every once in a wile betta fish treats for fat.
no they dont make their own food
The male Betta splendens is a larger more colourful fish with much larger showier fins than the female. He will also flare up almost immediately when he sees his own image in a mirror. The females do not do this so readily.
It is generally not safe to put a betta fish with other fish in the same tank, as bettas are known to be aggressive and may attack or even kill other fish. It is best to keep bettas in their own tank to ensure their safety and well-being.
Many fish eat their own newborns.
