First-time betta owner, I'd really appreciate some help!

When i feed blood worms i usually do 3 for my males then skip a day in between so they dont get bloated, 3 if the worms are smaller 2 if bigger, that hasnt given me problems, i also go by size of the fish

Thanks MaggieLynn! I will pick some up at Petco tomorrow and see how it goes (:

Do you put in dechlorinator right before you change his water/ I suggest putting in less water conditioner then suggested and letting the water sit for a few days. Cloudy tanks usually happen to me because I put the conditioner in a few minutes before I introduce the fish (which is really, really bad LOL)

I don't think I could keep Pierre out of his tank for that long.. Usually I let the tank sit for a little while then put him back in.

Just keep the water in a seperate container. like one of those 10 gallon water jugs.
