@betyourkok They sell betta flakes, too, but usually they're supposed to prefer pellets. They love frozen bloodworms best. If you don't have other fish and only a betta, you should get the ones that are sold in sheets instead of in little cubes, so you can scrape off a small enough portion and refreeze the rest. You can feed him freeze dried bloodworms too, but they're less healthy than frozen ones.
@GamerGlitches89 Yes, but make sure you change the water at LEAST 2 times a week, if not more. Or have a filter, then once a week would be fine! But of coarse a bigger tank would be better, and I do recommend having a filter no mater what size the tank, I use the: Tetra Whisper. Good Luck
@GamerGlitches89 For a 3 gallon tank with filter... You should ether do a 20-50% water change weekly or a full water change every two weeks . It dose depend on the betta though, if the water gets brownish before 1-2 weeks then do full water change! Then at least every month wash out everything in the tank! For a 20-50% water change just take the fish out and replace the 20-50% of the water. I am not an expert but I hope this was helpful and not TOO confusing ;) .
@mojodrago08 Alright so to do that, we just put the betta in like a little cup or bowl, and then scrub out the inside, and replace the water? Does it need new gravel each time you clean the tank? Also, how do you put Water conditioner in?
@GamerGlitches89 Yes, and to put water conditioner in there should be instructions on how much conditioner to put in per gallon of water ON the container, so look! To put it in you add the water to the tank then put in the correct amount of conditioner then let it sit for about 10-15 min before adding the fish. Make sure you DON'T put the fish in before the conditioner!!!!
i have a small tank and i have a blue one tht loks like your blueish one his name is dr.bieber and he always looks tired and or sad but he has the bubble nests all over he plant ive bene thinging about moveing the plant so he can swim around it is this a good idea because he cant move around it because it is up agnst the side of the tank/ please help!
i have a 2.5 gallons tank with a heater. do i change 25% of the water evey week and 100% of the water every 2 months? do i change 100% of the water at all? i see lots of people do that on youtube and the betta seems to be fine.
Lots of ways to clean tank. If you only have the one Betta in the tank you wont have a lot of waste 20-25% once-twice a week is fine. Vacuum the gravel every 2-4 weeks with filter changes. The only thing you want to watch is shocking them. Premixing the water with dechlorinator and gettng the fresh water temp room temp- what temp the tank is at will keep your betta happy. Ive known people to change 100% water but that messes up your tanks biology and can kill your fish if its weak
They seem to like long leafed grassy looking plants. They'll wedge themselves in them and nap lol In the wild they're found in puddles and small swamps so lots of soft smooth plants. Low lighting cause they anger at reflections. They're fond of doorways or donut-like ornaments protecting their sides but not back or their front. Also they hate fast moving water.. If you have too much current in your tank it can actually exhaust them to the point of killing them.
@Hamyshark There's nothing wrong with fake plants, but try silk or something softer than most of the plastic plants in the store. Rule of thumb: if pantyhose would snag on it, it's no good (fins will snag just as easily). There are some nice-looking, inexpensive artificial plants--just be sure to clean them well when you clean the rest of the tank (no soap!).
Some people might trash talk you saying 1.5g is cruel but its a lot better than the cup at the pet store. You can always upgrade later too. I think a 20g is only $30-40 which is perfect for them plus you can decorate it up reaaallly nice.
A side fact.. Betta fish are territorial up to one square foot. They wont attack fish that don't look like a Betta fish so some tetra are safe cause they dont look like betta and swim too fast for betta to catch.
can someone please help me! my fighter fish is fighting for his life! i have absolutly no idea what happened. i changed it's water and condishoned it too. somebody please help me!
@PurpleNeonOwls They actually do. Bettas are warm water fish and will be very uncomfortable in cold water. I used to believe all the myths about bettas, too, but since I have moved my bettas to 5-10g heated and filtered tanks, they have really thrived. I use a sponge filter in my 10g and a low-flow internal filter in my 5g because bettas don't like strong currents. The sponge filter was less than $10.
SO glad I saw this! I just got my first betta today, and he only has one plant in his tank that came with the little kit. Which, by the way, the tank you said was 1.5 gallons was actually I think only .5 gallons (that's the one I have). My male betta is too big for it, I'm going to go get a 2.5 gallon tank tomorrow as well as the plants.
@mrcheekycheeks I did! :D I got him the Aqueon MiniBow 2.5gal tank with a filter, and he loves it! :) I'm so happy I ended up getting it. He swims around a lot more, and I bought him another soft plastic plant and a nice silk plant that he loves sleeping in. Definitely worth it. ^_^
@Kagome811 it is! i got mine in a 5g hex tank, just him and a shrimp. Hes got silk plants too, so they don't tear his fins, and a heater/filter, but if you live in a hot climate you don't really need a heater
@mrcheekycheeks Ooh, awesome! :D Are you liking the 5gal hex tank? I'd really like to get Apollo a 5gal tank someday...
As for heaters, I just ordered a 25watt adjustable one that had lots of good reviews. I live in Ohio, so it's pretty cold here in winter xD And even in summer we have the AC on which makes it cold in here basically all the time. lol
Is it better to have gravel or rocks? I've had 4 Bettas total including the two I have now and I have always used rocks because they are easier to clean. Please reply
Well I bought the divider tank, the Bettas are very small so hopefully they wont be sad before I can buy a second tank. I had no idea that was too small as I have never owned a fish before. For the gallon and a half tanks with the pretty lids, how much conditioner should use use. That is the tank I will be buying and I think once I take the divider out they will both be gallon and a half tanks. Is one capful enough per gallon?
@Lightning12R you only put the female with the male after he built his bubble nest,after that you seperate them because he harrases the female so much that she dies of stress, iv made that mistake once hehe
@Lightning12R You need to condition them. Usually dividing the tank or placing the female in the tank via a large cup (transparent)with the female inside. This way they can see each other but not touch. Once the male builds a bubble nest and the female develops signs of eggs you can usually place them together.
u dumb shit when u were talking about fish diseases and fin loss the picture u showed us was of a perfectly healthy CROWN TAIL BETTA thats how there meant to look u retard
i got a tank for my birthday and i set it all up. i added the chemical to get rid of the chlorine and the other one to promote healthy bacteria and i also added water conditioner... i basically followed all the instructions. but when i put my betta in it died in 3 hrs! i dont know what happened! did i forget somthing? i have a filter, heater, thermometer and everything. the tank was running for 24hrs before i added the fish. i dont want to try again before i fix it.
@JcmJanah answers to your questions 1. A fish can get ich by bartiria, or paracites in his water 2. yes, you can put him in a large fish bowl as long as it is at least 2 gallons, has a heater, and a filter, and enough shelter inside 3. no, bettsa dont eat every kind of fish food, mine will not eat pellots, but any brand of betta food is good, i recommend topfin 4. they get fin rot the same way they get ich, but you will notice small bits of fin rotting off of your fish, get it treated ASAP
@epicmickeymouse123 I would definitely recommend using conditioner. Just because water conditioners are specially designed to remove harmful bacterias and chlorine. With boiling you can never be too sure how much have gone. I recommend using tetra Aqua safe water conditioner. In this video it shows betta water conditioner, which is actually just a weakened version of regular water conditioner. The reason it is like this is that Bettas are commonly kept in tanks below 5 gallons (unfortunately),
@epicmickeymouse123 you go out and buy some. If you absolutely can not get any I recommend boiling the water you are putting in the tank. Please make sure that you don't put your betta in water straight from the tap, the chlorines etc in the water can be lethal for your betta and can kill them. If I were you before the next water change get some conditioner, if your betta is currently swimming about in straight from the tap water immediately take him out into a plastic tub or something (which h
Can I use river water instead of using tap water? I stream runs 500 meters from my house and it´s crystal clear water that comes down from the nearby volcano that has a snow cap year round. can i do that?
i just got my betta and whenever there is somtin luod it freaks out why is he doing this? and why doesmy betta quiver his fins real fast and spread out when i look into his tank?
@TheFunnybunny234 he probobly isnt used to u yet so dont do anything loud around him or startle him. he just needs to get used to his new tank. i would recommend putting some long plants in there so he can hide. Good luck with ur new betta!!
@TheFunnybunny234 he probobly isnt used to u yet so dont do anything loud around him or startle him. he just needs to get used to his new tank. i would recommend putting some long plants in there so he can hide. Good luck with ur new betta!!
Is the ich and fin loss treatment espensive? Are little things like mountains with holes good for Betta's to sleep in? Or do they prefer flower things like you had exampled?
@kingofallsaiyans123 um yea id get a filter onyl if there breeding but ive had one live in a bowl for like 3 years ok happy life alll u need is rocks check out my channel
I recently got a betta fish and had him for about two weeks. He was in a 2.5 gallon tank that I did 50% water changes in every week. This morning he was dead and the nitrites were 10+. I don't get it...
I even think that the one with 1.5 gallon is too small. The petbox is okay. Mine lives in a 3 or 4 gallons tank with a heater and a nice lightlamp and much plants and stones. watch my videos to see what im talking about ;P Nice video by the way!
For everyone who's wondering about why bettas are kept in blue, green, yellow, and purple water in stores, it's so the bettas won't see each other and fight, it's easier to keep males together that way. (I do NOT work with any pet companies) :)
Ok, I have a q: will my Betta ever stop staring at his reflection??? Also, how do I no when he's hungry? Btw, my Betta looks JUST like yours, except fuller fins. :D
I have a 4 gallon tank, will i need a heater? The lady from the petstore said i wouldnt but i put hte tip of my nail in the top and it was a little bit cold! Also, ive been feeding her but shes not eating? i dont know if this is from the coldness of the water if its to cold or if shes just eating a little??
I have aa question; before the betta fish die, do they sink to the bottem? Because both me AND my brother's betta fish sank to the bottem and the next week or so they were both dead. Just wondering :) Oh, and, I'm getting a NEW one today!
Room temp is not the best for your Betta/s, they are tropical fish meaning a temperature of 72-76ish is ideal. And why do ppl always buy bettas and trap in tiny bowls or vases. Yes they can survive like that but it is not ideal. In their natural habitat they live in rice paddies which are like small swimming pools and many paddies are connected. I use to breed Bettas, it is extremely easy if you know how to provide the optimum conditions and let it thrive instead of barely survive in its own sht
@xDAVMANx If you keep a female & a male together they are going to mate & have children. & the best temperature is room temperature. the night before you change the water set the water out on the counter & the next day it will be room temperature.
@makeup012z im sorry but you are wrong, the best temperture is 78 degrees they need warmer water and the only time you can put female and males together is when they are mating. putting them any other time and male will chase the female and stress it to death
@makeup012z I release that your comment is old now, but I still need to reply to it.You absolutely shouldn't EVER keep a male and female betta together - they will 9/10 times fight like two males will, and the female will often kill the male. Breeding bettas and introducing a breeding pair to each other is incredibly difficult. Room temperature is actually too cold for bettas - they can survive in room temperature water but it is better that they have heated water, as they are tropical fish.
@xDAVMANx - well, you can have a male and a female together if you have a realy big aquarium with lots of plants. if you put them together in a small tank, the male is gonna hunt the female until she dies of stress. =/ Dont worry about lonliness for the fishes. =) The betta-males are just feeling safer when they lives buy themselves ;)

@TheFunnybunny234 he probobly isnt used to u yet so dont do anything loud around him or startle him. he just needs to get used to his new tank. i would recommend putting some long plants in there so he can hide. Good luck with ur new betta!!

Is the ich and fin loss treatment espensive? Are little things like mountains with holes good for Betta's to sleep in? Or do they prefer flower things like you had exampled?

I recently got a betta fish and had him for about two weeks. He was in a 2.5 gallon tank that I did 50% water changes in every week. This morning he was dead and the nitrites were 10+. I don't get it...

I even think that the one with 1.5 gallon is too small. The petbox is okay. Mine lives in a 3 or 4 gallons tank with a heater and a nice lightlamp and much plants and stones. watch my videos to see what im talking about ;P Nice video by the way!

littlepervekitteh 11 months ago
For everyone who's wondering about why bettas are kept in blue, green, yellow, and purple water in stores, it's so the bettas won't see each other and fight, it's easier to keep males together that way. (I do NOT work with any pet companies) :)

fishluver1226 1 year ago
Room temp is not the best for your Betta/s, they are tropical fish meaning a temperature of 72-76ish is ideal. And why do ppl always buy bettas and trap in tiny bowls or vases. Yes they can survive like that but it is not ideal. In their natural habitat they live in rice paddies which are like small swimming pools and many paddies are connected. I use to breed Bettas, it is extremely easy if you know how to provide the optimum conditions and let it thrive instead of barely survive in its own sht

Whats the best water temp ?? And can I keep a female and male together ??? I have this thing about fish being by them self lolz
xDAVMANx 1 year ago
@xDAVMANx If you keep a female & a male together they are going to mate & have children. & the best temperature is room temperature. the night before you change the water set the water out on the counter & the next day it will be room temperature.
makeup012z 1 year ago
@makeup012z tecnacly no.........you can keep them together while they mate......but then they will fight eachother
sweetstrawberry128 1 year ago
@makeup012z im sorry but you are wrong, the best temperture is 78 degrees they need warmer water and the only time you can put female and males together is when they are mating. putting them any other time and male will chase the female and stress it to death
Jack13467985258 7 months ago
@makeup012z I release that your comment is old now, but I still need to reply to it.You absolutely shouldn't EVER keep a male and female betta together - they will 9/10 times fight like two males will, and the female will often kill the male. Breeding bettas and introducing a breeding pair to each other is incredibly difficult. Room temperature is actually too cold for bettas - they can survive in room temperature water but it is better that they have heated water, as they are tropical fish.

@xDAVMANx - well, you can have a male and a female together if you have a realy big aquarium with lots of plants. if you put them together in a small tank, the male is gonna hunt the female until she dies of stress. =/ Dont worry about lonliness for the fishes. =) The betta-males are just feeling safer when they lives buy themselves ;)
