Hello, My significant other got a new female betta tonight (his first betta!) because he was jealous of Petri!!! LOL Anyways.. what should he name her? We’re looking for suggestions from SpongeBob as she has those themed accessories in her tank and she’s bright yellow in the sunlight. Thank you!

I hope someone can help answer a question I have about my Red Veiltail Betta. I have had my Betta (Red Baron AKA. RB) for 3-4 months now a compatible communal 40litre (10 Gallons?) tank with various live plants, and recently he's started to flare up a lot more. ( the tank has 8 neon tetras, 4...

Hi! I just got a beautiful betta 3 days ago and have some questions about its behaviour, the water appearance and a decor I'm using. Here are some videos of him: Regular Sleeping Position Behaviour? Odd Resting Position? Swimming in Jolts 1. Firstly, I'd like to make sure that he looks...

I’ll keep the intro short since I kinda went to town on the questionnaire: My girlfriend and I liberated (bought) Jeph from an abandoned Walmart fish department that was removed less than a month later. His health has never been great but seems to be declining quickly with a rough case of fin...

Hello everyone! This is my new Betta named Merlin, He's beautiful!! :love: I was wondering if anyone could tell me what kind of Betta he is? Thanks in advance!

Here are the resuls of Ciel's first photoshoot. I didn't want to stress him out too much since I used a light he wasn't used to so it was very quick, but I am very proud of the first photo. :)

Prince Azul (featured in my profile pic), I got him on a whim 3 years ago when I went to pick up food for my turtles I saw him sitting there and fell in love with him immediately. He reminded me of Nemo as his left fin was pretty torn up, but he had a fighting spirit and immediately swam up when...

Hey all! I keep finding glass and/or acrylic laying around the house I'm renting. I have botched a 12L acrylic build and successfully built a 10L glass tank. While I was water testing the 10L in my basement, I noticed a large piece of glass near the furnace. I decided that I'd build a betta...

I got this wonderful betta 2 weeks ago, named him JAZZ (very energetic when i picked up his tiny cup at the petshop, made me think: JAZZ HANDS lol) Until today he lived in a little fish bowl my mother purchased for me. I had googled bettas to make sure I was looking after him properly- of...

Hey all! This is my first ever post after lurking about this forum for the past few days. I will be setting up my first ever aquarium this week and had some logistics questions I was hoping for feedback on. We had fresh and saltwater tanks in my home growing up, but they were my dad's thing and...

Hi! I'm new to the forum and to bettas, but I'd like to add that I've researched a bit and watched videos on them. I have a Twin Tail Halfmoon Betta and I've had him for about 3 days now and he's been doing fine. But when I came home today, he isn't acting how he was the last 2 days. I don't...

This is Viggo. He's a super delta tail. I'm doing a fish-in cycle with him following the two sentence tutorial, so far he seems healthy, exploring his tank, flaring a little bit but nothing major, once almost got stuck between the filter and tank wall, but got out by himself, and I readjusted...

Hi! Before I get on with my question(s) here's a little bit of background… I'm a 16 year old in highschool with bad anxiety. My mom thought it would be a good idea to get me a fish tank for my room since watching my little sister's fish swim around in her tank calms me down with my anxiety and...

Hi, I'm new to Betta and the site but thought I would start here by sharing my first Betta. I got Wynn from a Pet Value last week. I thought his iridescent colouring was striking and was pleased that he was a feisty fella too :-D He is very social with me, if I come to the tank he will swim...

Hi. My amazing betta boy Omar's tail got shredded within minutes. It was perfect and now it's awful and kind of upsetting. He is my first betta. The only new ish thing in my tank is a betta log which I just examined and felt a sharp part on the inside of. I made that smooth. There is a corner...

My poor little guy Rumi is currently "surviving" in a 2.6 gallon heated and filtered tank. Not the worst thing in the world but he must be feeling a little claustrophobic, so I went ahead and ordered a 5 gallon Fluval Spec V tank. It looks super fabulous and has a pretty rad filtration system...

i just got my first betta yesterday from petsmart. i purchased national geographic's 1.2 gallon half moon aqua oasis starter kit along with aqueon betta food, a "hiding spot", and a plastic plant(dont worry, i am planning on fixing this as soon as possible!). my only issues with the tank is that...

I have a 2.5 gallon tank with a filter and would love to put a betta in. It held a mushroom coral and nearly a clown loach and comet goldfish. Thanks:-D Does not own any fish:(

Hi everyone, first-time betta owner as of Feb. 11, 2014 (name: Alcibiades, affectionately called "Fishheh"). This is my first post here, but I've been reading this forum for a little over one year. I am looking for pics and will post them once I have them. I wrote a lot and hopefully it will be...

Hi, I just bought my betta yesterday, as a late Christmas gift from a cousin. It's a male crown tail...and I have a few questions lol Now, I spoke with several people yesterday and (I know I could have googled it, that's my bad) no one told me about acclimating the tank and the nitrigen cycle...
