what kind of water should I use to put my betta fish in, every time I used tap water

my fish stays for at least 4 days and then it dies. Some one told me it might be the

wrong water I used.

Fish vary in the number of young they produce and the way in which they produce them. For example, Guppies and platies are live-bearing fish, which means that they give birth to live, free swimming young, usually around 50-100 young per birthing, whereas betta's create bubble nests and eggs are placed into this by the father who then guards the nest and the young until they are able to fend for themselves.

As far as the water goes, you should not use straight tap water...ever! The chlorine and other chemicals contained within tap water to make it suitable for human consumption are often lethal to fish. You should remove these chemicals and heavy metals by either filtering the water using a reverse osmosis unit, or you should by a water treatment designed for use in aquaria (you can readily buy these at your local pet or fish store).

What kind of fish lives by the delta fresh water fish or salt water fish?

Both kinds of fish can live in a delta area. The line between salt water fish and fresh water fish seems to be getting blurrier.

It appears that salt water fish adapt better than fresh water fish as the fish found in fresh water are not found out at sea.

If fishes can survive in salt and fresh water what are their range of tolerance?

Many fish that do so, such as salmon, move between these environments at a slow pace. Many fish are adapted to live in either condition but that change can occur. Higher concentrations of salt would cause a freshwater fish to become dehydrated and eventually die. Fresh water would affect salt water fish by bloating. Water is used to balance the effects of salt but when salt water fish are introduced to fresh water quickly that balance is upset and thus, we have a high amount of water, bloating.
