Another betta question2007-11-24 23:09:33

Is this enviornment suitable for a betta? I'm mostly concerced about the size. Is it big enogh for the fish to be comfortable. I conditioned the water to remove all the chlorine and stuff not good for the fish. Thanks!

Answers:

If you don't want to buy a filter or a heater, your best bet are mysterysnails and ghost shrimp to keep in there

here is a link about ghost shrimp, they're actually pretty to look at

If you want a betta you need at least a 2.5 gallon tank with filter and heater

Hope that helps

Good luck

It's ok. I prefer larger. I like to use at least a gallon or two for mine. But that's me. My current Betta is in a 3 gallon tank with a snail, a ghost shrimp and 2 algae eating shrimp. They have an Azoo palm filter on the back and that works great.

Double the container size

Your tank looks very pretty!

Don't fill the water up near the top because the betta may "jump" out. If you have one betta in there he will be lonely. Get him a female to live with.

They can survive without a heater - I have two bettas (M&F) in a coldwater tank and they're doing just fine!

If you want to add other fish to the tank, be careful with smaller fish such as white clouds, dandios etc - they will nibble on your bettas tail thinking it's flakes!
