Chain store bought fish are more fragile because of what they've been through, but even those you get from breeders are delicate & their fins will never stay totally perfect. We all age ;) But I beg anyone watching this video to please research tropical fish care 100% before buying a Betta. Things like fin rot etc are not normal & it's down to you to treat it no matter where you buy from. Keep the water warm, clean, use Aquarium tonic salt and Almond Leaves, & you will enjoy a healthy Betta!
i want a betta this pretty. i want to get mine from petco. how can i get his fins this long and pretty? is it a specific kind of food i should feed him or what??
@abitofgloss Yes, he WAS. Sadly the only places around here to get those kind of bettas is PetCo. I think they get extremely stressed out and always end up with the fin rot. Glad I got lots of pics and vids of him before he passed.
@wolflythegreat09 Wow. You can always put a half floating cup for him to make a bubble nest inside and when you gotta clean the tank, you can just take the half cup out. But I don't do that because I want my fish to feel natural so I leave the nest there.
I have a red Half moon... he swims just like this... he has so much character... i bought him for $30 but it was so worth it. i love him so much... his name is Fluffy Butt/ Guss haha i also have 6 other siemese fighting fish with all different tails...
yes- regular bettas are about 2.99 as to where half moons can be as little as 14.00 and up - PetCo sells them. But you can also get them from a local breeder if you can find them.
if hes losing parts of his tail he might be biting it or he has fin rot because the water isnt clean an u should get water condition or med. for him so it will grow back (:
Is this a full grown half moon? My half moon is only half of thy size! Nice!!!
