Zodiac's Gemini

Hello Zodiac! I'm Jewel, I'm new here too. Like all the people on here, you have been bitten by the Betta Bug!!! Prepare to be amazed (even further) by the un-boring world of bettas! :) Gemini does indeed look to be a marble, watch his colors change hehe. If you have any questions just give the world a shout out and we will be there at your service.

Since tips are appreciated, then: I would recommend a good tank that is more wide than it is tall (bettas do indeed come from "mud puddles" that are slightly deeper than normal puddles, but they are still "puddles" and per their nature bettas like wider shallower- NOT TOO SHALLOW- waters), a sponge filter (because the flow will push your betta around a lot less than a power filter, etc.), and a Hydor Theo 25watt heater (because it has an adjustable temp setting and is widely revered in the betta community). Food brands recommended are New Life Spectrum, Omega One, and Hikari Betta Bio-Gold. Water conditioner brand recommended is Seachem Prime. Hope that wasn't too long for you, and any other members, please correct me if I got something wrong! :) Welcome to the Fish Tank!
 
I meant ¨puddles¨, as in air-quote puddles, not actual puddles :) Sorry for the misunderstanding, but I was just trying to illustrate the concept.
