Today after slaving over the sink with water changes, chemical tests, and organizing my betta first aid kit I wondered if anyone else here made one. They are nifty to have and I think its good to be prepared! what is included in yours? Or... if you dont have one, would you think it be a good idea to make one and what would you put in it? 0.o Any recommended medications, please post for everyone to see!!!!! =3

Example:

My Betta kit includes:

Medications/Removers
* Aquarium salt (many purposes )
* Topfin Ammonia Remover
* Pimafix (bacterial infections)
* API Bettafix ( for damaged fins, scales, and stress)
* Melafix (fish infections and fin regrowth)
* Betta Revive (baterial, fungal, protozoan diseases)

( I am getting more meds soon! )

Water treatment
* Tetra Aquasafe water conditioner plus bioextract
* Aqueon Bettabowl plus water conditioner
*Tetra Betta Safe water conditioner
* Jungle Clear Water (cloudy water treatment)

Extra foods
*NLS Betta Formula
*Tetra Bloodworms
*Aqueon Natural Betta Pellets
*Hikari Biogold pellets
*SFBB Beefheart cubes (freezer )
*SFBB Daphnia ( freezer )
*Tetra tropical flakes ( yuck! )


Chemical Tests

*Mardel Master Test Kit: Ammonia, Ph, Alkalinity, Harness, Nitrates, Nitrites
* those tiny thin skinney beakers for water testing strips
* chemical test color charts

Other
*Petsmart Manuals:
- Betta guide
- Fish disease diagnose and treatment
- General fish care
- Aquarium set up/ cycling process
* spare thermometers
* aquarium nets

All this except my freezer foods and my quarantine tank are stored in a small, clear, storable tub with a sealed lid.

I keep the basics around in my first aid kit.

• epsom salt
• aquarium salt
• IAL leaves
• stress coat
• maracyn 2 (just incase
• ethromycin (just incase)

• betta revive
• 1 gallon quarantine critter keeper with heater

I think is a good idea to have a few things around, just in case something happens at an unfortunate time...which is usually does.:lol:

Wow.
that's an amazing thing for you to do. So many things, larsa!

 

[ArcticRain]

This is a really good idea! I have AQ salt on hand and extra food. I really need to get and extra quarantine tank and a portable cup just in case. Thanks for the ideas!

Someone should package all this inside a 1gal Critter Keeper and sell them.
As like an actual Betta first aid kit.

littlebittyfish...espom salt? o.o im interested in that. those leaves are a GREAT idea... im trying to find some for my fishes there has been a lot of fires recently here in Texas so i have to be prepared! I love your signature btw :3 I have been trying to make one like that

articrain, a critter keeper can be used a quarantine tank as long as you get a small filter they are like 10 at walmart.

hmmmmm sell betta first aid kits nifty

i also have my food stored all over the place; the micro pellets are by the lady tank cause thats who its for *guppies* and the algae pellets are there also cause the cat fish is in there, um the pellets and daphina i have tipped a bit of each into little containers and stacked the rest in the freezer to get more life out of it ^-^

I actually looked on EBAY for a possible spawn set up, but nothing.

This is pretty commendable!
