@itsxjustxanotherxcut Neons don't do well alone - they prefer to swim around in shoals. I don't think a betta would eat or bully a neon, because they don't look like bettas and they're too big to eat.
How cute! My betta, Paul, will chill in my hand sometimes. if I stick my hand in when he's coming up for air he'll swim onto my hand.:) I have a few videos of Paul on my channel.
wow that is pretty amazing, never knew beta fish were so active, they always look still and lazy at the stores but i guess its becuz they are in small containers
that is so adorable. i have a betta fish its a boy and i can hand feed him but he woulnt llet me hold him. but he does go on the side of the tank that i am on if he gets scared. i had a toy lion on one side of the tank my betta didnt like it and he swam over to me. betta fish ROCKS!!!!
@xYummahMuffins Lol. Thats bs. If our oils were toxic how would we clean their tanks and make renovations like adding plants and changing deco? You're dumb. I've kept/bred bettas for over 10 years and pet and hold them all the time. Quit saying stuff you don't actually know about.
This is amazing, I'm due to receive my new shipment of breeding stock next week. But my main stud lives in a 30Litre tank with Neon Tetras and Guppys, they get along great :)
I really like this video, I actually just purchased a 5 gal tank to get a betta, its going to be a while until I can actually get one since i will have to prepare the tank and research some more, but what should i look for in the temperament of a betta to acquire a friendly one?
I had a betta like that once, my first female Mei =) she was the sweetest thing, ther ewas one point I was trying to take out one of the sorority girls because I wanted to look at something on her fin and was having trouble netting her. I was pulling out the net and before I knew it, Mei had leaped INTO the net! And didn't seem to be spazing either was just sorta like 'oh hai thar' XD it was the funniest thing ever! I miss sweet little mei =<
Mine used to look exactly like this one and was extremely sweet. When he was dying I was in school and as soon I as got home and "said goodbye" he died. I loved that fish, he was like a giant beta or something, idk, he was a pretty big fish.
@angeloandveronica HAHAHA he swam in and out of his hand... I'd say hes not bothered. If he reached his hand in the thank and grabbed the guy I would say it was cruel but you realize all he did was stick his hand in the top of the water and the betta swam in and out.
Got a Blue/green betta for Christmas, im gonna get him a new tank, a heater, and a castle for his for his tank. He'll be so happy, warm, and be the king of his very own little ocean. He needs a name, i want a Japanese name for him
Cory doras catfish, nerite snails, and african dwarf frogs are your safest bet. Other species you risk nipping fins of the Betta or downright attacking/killing them, or they have very different preferences in water hardness/temperature/current than Bettas.
@Matthew0161 just dont try mollies XD my first betta lived with a molly and she was always harassing him D8 I eventually had a friend take the mollie so that she would leave poor joe alone =< actually...she wound up being a he I believe haha xD but luna would nibble at joe's fins D8
@ihateyoda aww I have a amle betta and we're getting the aquarium today. But you shoudln't get the fish frm walmart because they die very fast :( I'm very sorry about you're fish :( mine has swim bladder but we're taking care of him he also had fin rot but now he's healed form that at least. I hope you get another fish and keep them for a long time!
This video is much cuter then the one that have owners peting(more like rubbing to death) their bettas that are living in a small glass the size of a coffee cup claiming their fish is loving it when he's actualy flaring. Yours on the other hand, seems to love you and as long as your hands are clean yet soap free It shouldn't harm him ^^ keep up the good work!
My fish Kumpa does this! I find this vid ironic too since this little guy looks like my room mate's fish Frank who lives on her desk and is the meanest fish in the world
so cute! i have two betta's both male and they dont like me nearly as much as yours likes you ^_^. Mine always freak out when i come near the tank but they are kinda better now, now they dont freak out they just wont stand still... Can you help me get a better relationship with them?!?!?!
I have a male betta named Fluffy (He is overweight,hences the name). I Have had him for a very short time and he is about 1 year old and he was my Aunt's. I have had bettas since I was 5 and they are really cool!!! I am now 10. I am very sorry about your betta, he seems so SWEET.........
@FrankVento1 i'm 13 and i am getting about my 5th lot of bettas they are just the coolest fish eva! and me too my first betta i got when i was 5 i wanted to get a cat from the pet shop then i saw the bettas and i've loved them ever since my last one he was absouloubly gorgeous he used to eat from my fingers i'm so exited i'm getting my first male and female pair tomorrow (i hope) it's been delayed for 3 days now but when i do get them it will be well worth it =D
@moglover1227 The reason bettas are kept by themselves a lot of the time is not to protect the other fish, but to protect the betta from having his fins nipped. They are quite peaceful, indeed shy, towards the great majority of community fish.
After seeing this video I have a feeling that the blue bettas are naturally smarter and much more friendly. I have an almost identical betta at home and I have trained him to swim around my finger for food. I have also trained him to get along with other fish. A swordtail lives with him in bowl and sometimes the betta will gently rest over the other fish, almost as if he's protecting him. Bettas are an amazing fish, and lots of fun. If you treat them right!
