Which do you like better: goldfish or betta, and why
I like it that bettas are colorful and don't need much space, and I like it that goldfish can be in ponds and get big and are beautiful. Which do you like more, and why?
And please, it annoys me when people say "I like bettas better, because they can live in tiny vases and they are cleaner." It says to me that all you care about is having a fish that is very low maintenence and don't care about taking care of a fish.
Answers:I have both so it's kind of hard to pick but if I had to I guess it would have to be goldfish. Bettas can be very active and have their own personalities, if in a proper size tank and they both come in all different types and colors. But I think goldfish have just a little more personality and of course they are active, especially when they know they are going to be fed. Its kind of like a dog and cat, a dog is always there and wants to play (goldfish) and a cat will play but likes to do its own thing (betta), I also have both a cat and a dog.
I would want a goldfish because they live longer and you can have more fish with a goldfish where a Betta would kill the other fish.
I like both because I had at least two of each. last year my goldfish died. I had him for almost 6 years! I miss him a lot. I had a betta. It was all colorful. It died! :(
What people mean when they say "cleaner" is the beta fish has less "fish waste", which equals less stink. Gold fish excrete a lot, which in small aquarium becomes very stinky, very fast, no matter how dedicated you are to maintenence.
If this is your first fish, I definitly recommend Beta.
I would go with a gold fish because they are better to look at and you can put more than one in a tank.
i had a betta and didnt like it because you can only have one, but they last longer.
You know Bettas live longer if they are put in a fish tank with other fish. I had a betta that lived for about 6 years no lie. He was in a 55 gal tank with some tetras, and other fish!
I definatly like Bettas better. I love the colors. And how pretty they are!
i like bettas better because they are so colorful.
