  1. Breeding Betta Fish
    Hey guys, I had placed a female into a 10 gallon tank with a male in a chimney for 2 days, and the male made a great bubble nest, and I released the female, and the next 36 hours seemed pretty decent, he was doing this mating process and this morning when I went to check on them, the nest has...
  2. Planted Betta Tanks
    So I bought the "Top Fin Enchant 3.5 Gallon Tank". Currently I have my female beta living in it. I put gravel, a betta log ornament for my betta's privacy, fake plants and a filter. I want to make my tank more interesting and more lively. I was thinking about maybe putting live plants, maybe...
  3. Betta Fish Diseases and Emergencies
    I think my fish has swim bladder...I recently noticed that his belly is swollen and that he tilts to the side and floats to the top. I heard about this and I am a new fish owner..I know I am not over feeding him but I believe its the blood worms that I feed him. Are the only treatments...
  4. Betta Fish Care
    Hello! I have a 16gal and I'm currently trying to cycle it. However, I'm very confused on my readings. I have had the tank for 3 weeks so far. What I do know is that ammonia turns into nitrite, which turns into nitrate. And that a cycled tank has 0 ammonia and 0 nitrite. However, I am confused...

    This is my fish. His name is Cal, I got him from Walmart today. He's the first fish I've had since I was like, 6 so if I could have any tips or anything that would be cool. {I know his tank is super small and pretty lame but I got a small paycheck last week. I'm going to be ordering him some...
  6. Betta Fish Compatibility
    I have an empty 100 gallon fish tank that I will be filling with water and cycling starting tomorrow. It will be fully cycled, so that isn't a worry, and before anyone becomes rude, I have had a sorority before, infection and old age killed my girls, I currently have 2 males, and 3 females...

  9. Betta Fish Care
    Hi everyone! So my betta died a couple weeks ago :(. Sad. But I got a new one yesterday :). Happy! So my recently deceased Betta, Kanaloa, was a pretty healthy fish for most of the 2 years I had him. He got an Ich infection about a week after I got him but it resolved quickly with medication...

  12. Betta Fish Care
    A while back I posted a thread here about Nevermore, one of my HMs, going blind. I wasn't sure what to do with him in regards to proper care, and while I received some tips, none have really helped. He's still blind, and I still have him. He's been building nests, however, he is almost entirely...
  13. Betta Fish Care
    I bought a baby Betta yesterday from Petco and have been reading a little on how to take care of them but everything seems to be a little different. I have two older Bettas that share a tank (it has a divider) and they live very happily. But having a BABY BETTA is a little new to me. Water...
  14. Betta Fish Compatibility
    Hi everyone, I am planning on putting a betta in my 10 gal community with some shrimp and cory catfish and a snail. I was wondering if anyone had any tips on how to pick the most peaceful betta. Are there certain types that are nicer or certain things I can look for when buying? Thanks!

    I think it is time for me to give back to the community!! I have found an easy fix for Fluval Spec Tanks' common issue... Strong Current. There are many ways I saw on the forum including putting plants in front of it, tie a sponge on it, etc. Those are definitely good ways, but I'd like to...

  18. Betta Fish Diseases and Emergencies
    I got a blue Deltatail betta just two days ago, and yesterday I noticed he had white tips on his two fins near his head. (Ventrals?) Though I may just be an overly-concerned fish-mother, they seem to have gotten bigger today. He looks perfectly healthy otherwise, and is eating fine. This is my...

  20. Betta Fish Care
    Hi everyone! I have been offered a betta fish recently, but the thing is that the "fish tank" that I had was very small (at least I think it was), so I bought a 30 litre tank and my betta seems lonely in there.. I know that bettas are agressive, but is there any other species that I can put...
