Hello, I am not expert at all on this sort of fish, I only have a little experience with my two goldfish, so I would like to ask you something about bettas.

1- how big should a tank be at least, to contain 2 bettas?

2- is it ok to put immediatly one male and one female? I feel sorry to take only one fish in a tank, I don't know, maybee it feels lonely and stuff like that.

3- should the tank be equiped with filter and oxigen like for goldfish? and should it be heated?

Thanks

@M91AlohaGirl Two bettas? At least five gallons, and there MUST be a divider.

A male and a female... Well only short term, really, it's better to have two males or two females- with a male/female, the male will probably exhaust himself attempting to mate, thus making for a socially awkward situation...

As for filtration, sort of.. It needs to be light, gentle. Bettas DETEST fast water- it can mess with their fins. As for heat, I'd really recommend it unless your home is permahot,

bettas breath air? if i take his head out of the tank can he live?

[jourdy288]

@paulaxa1 Not very long. They need dissolve oxygen too, just not as much of it as other fish.

aswome mini documentary! i never knew all this about betta's i thought even in pet stores they'd be happy and not suffer! i really liked your film! so betta's can breath air.... i have a question, is it normal for a betta to burp, my fish opened its mouth and bubbles cam out. please reply! :-)

[jourdy288]

@potterthecockatiel It may be building a nest, how long do the bubbles stay around? Sometimes, though, thay's just how they breath.

I get so sad when I see the bettas at WalMart. They look absolutely miserable and sometimes their water is so dirty I can hardly see the fish!
