New toys for Jovi

[pillar]

Hello,

I have added a few pics of my betta Jovi (my gf thought he looked like a rock star) and his new home. I would like to add a few things to make his tank more interesting for him.

I definitely want to add some new plants, and perhaps another rock or log or something. Before I do anything, I would like to hear from some more experienced betta keepers, as the advice I have received on this site so far has been great!

Also, Jovi flaps his front fins REALLY fast, is this something I should be concerned about?

Here he is:[IMG]file:///C:/Documents%20and%20Settings/Administrator/Desktop/2009-04-03%20Jovi/IMG_1992.jpg[/IMG]

Your betta is beautiful! Don't worry about the front fins moving so fast. Its normal.

He's beautiful!
Looks like a 3 gallon tank,
Mine all love Bubble walls or if not enough room a small stone, But you will need to adjust it to his liking.

I ended up discarding most of the Cave thingy in the picture, None of my fish seemed to like it to much,,
I found alot of my betta's fell in love with the small castles, At first glance you'd think they'd never fit in them, But its the perfect size for 1 Betta,
Mine likes to slip in thru the back hole and hide while peeking out the front, When they see you looking they make a grand entrance thru the front door in a big flurry, I think they figure there MOVIE STARS!

The castles come in a variety of types,

Good tips! I will look around for a castle.

Also, I have a lot of gravel on the bottom - its about 2.5 inches thick. Should I remove some to allow more water in there?

I would cut it in half by what the pictures shows, But its up to you

I never cared about the underground filtration systems for some reason have them all stuffed away, Prefer just the plain ole gravel and air Stone

Looks to be the same type as the ones I have, says small so I assume.....

I only paid $4.99 ea. for mine at Walmart.
