It lived in a smallish tank (maybe 1gl… We didn’t do internet or research stuff all that much. Posted by Muuka: When we got our first betta when I was about 7yrs old (I’m 26 now so long time ago) How many amano shrimp can go in a 10 gallon tank with one betta? (I believe this has been answered before but a search of the group returned no answers.) Of course, it’s the bettas tank, so hes going back in, instead I would like to add more shrimp and hope that will divide the bettas attention. He’s a chronic tail biter x.x) so I think he may have been hidi ng from the betta this whole time and is just comfortable coming out now. My betta has been in a hospital tank for a few days for fin rot (easier to do h2o changes. Today, I did a water change and THERE HE IS. I’ve since undivided the tank (lost one boy unfortunately), rearranged a few times, countless water changes, never saw him. Funny story and a question, I added a single amano shrimp to my tank back in February or March and NEVER SAW IT AGAIN.You can also check out our names list for males and females if you still haven’t found a name for your fish. I would love to know any stories on female bettas living for as long as possible. I haven’t had great success with having females live for longer than 3 years though… which is kinda sad. I have seen a lot of talk about the betta only being able to live for so long because of breeding issues and eggs building up in the females but I’m not sure I believe it. I would say that’s pretty long and it’s cool to see how long these fish can live.Posted by Salama: I bought a betta fish yesterday and bought a 2 gallon tank is this size good and thanks you have helped me alot!

Wrap Up: Keep it Simple with Routine Your Routines This does wonders for their nutrition and digestion. Drop these on the surface and watch them eat them. Remove the skin and cut up into tiny pieces that the betta can eat. Most peas come precooked and those are what you use. Your common household “Pea” helps their digestion system. There is a trick to solve these problems. I’ve noticed most of them come from over feeding the fish and poor nutrition. A Pea Once a Week Helps!īetta fish have some weird digestion issues that sometimes arise. It blew me away and made me realize the sky is your limit. I have seen videos of betta owners teaching their fish to jump out of the water to snatch their food. Don’t leave the mirror there too long just for his health sake. It’s good for the betta to change things up and have their scans rips change a bit. This is his territorial fighting side coming out. You will notice your male get all “boasted” and ready to puff out. Obtain a small mirror and put it up to the aquarium glass. Here is a fun trick that some of you can do. ![]() ![]() There are days I wish I was swimming inside my aquarium. ![]() ![]() Your not crazy for wanting to play with your pet fish. Stick to a schedule of every couple of days. This will make your new tank an ecosystem. Transport this decor in a bag of water to your new tank. Tell the employee your tank needs beneficial bacteria. When you are at the pet store buying your fish, ALSO BUY a fake plant or decoration or rock from an ‘established aquarium’. This bacteria grows on plants, rocks and decor.

Your tank needs to be thought of as an ecosystem because that is what we are replicating (mother nature aka the outdoors where fish live). Let’s explain this “dumb-ified” and maybe that will help. The most common step that is “skipped” by beginners is the thought of “beneficial bacteria” I KNOW IT SOUNDS complicated but it really is not. Here is our Best Seller!

Buy a basic water conditioner and apply it to your water from your faucet before putting it in your tank. The thing that needs to be watched is chlorine.
