OMG! CONGRATULATIONS! That's awesome. I am so happy that you lfs did this for their bettas. I can't tell you how it warms my heart to hear it. BB :D

I am thrilled to have done it. Thanks. I use "Bowl Buddies" tablets and then two drop of additional declorination. In GA the clorination is very high in tap water. BB Wuvmybetta: thanks for the idea on the ghost shrimp. I'll check on that.

Bob George never flared in the two years I have known him until recently when I bought a mirror to hang on his tank. I never have up there long. About 5 to 10 minutes. I was wondering if it is okay to leave it hanging. Will he ever tire of flaring or is it unsafe for him to be flared so long? BB

:( Yikes, I had read that they were schoolers but have seen so many kep in solitary confinement that I though that maybe I had read wrong. I guess it's just another sad case of chain store fish keeper mis-information...*mutters*...thought I knew better than that. Thanks for the heads up...

You might think I a nutts but I do talk to the fish keepers at Wal-Mart and PetsMart when I go in for supplies about their bettas and it seems to be helping. This week I noticed that the betta cups didn't look as dingy as before. I have complained to the managers of two Wal-Mart in my town and...

I have got a male betta, three male zebra danios, oticinclus (algea eater), and plan to get a spotted cory (bottom feeder). They seem to work because the betta keeps to himself and his bubble nest. The danios school together and patrol the top for food. Hungry little buggers. The otocinclus...

Tank, That's awesome! I am really hoping that I can get mine soon. I just figured out how to add a photo of my betta as an avatar. I hung a mirror so that he'd flare. Gave him about a 10 minute exerise and then put the mirror away. LOL Bob George seems much happier in his tank than his...

For as small a tank as I have it's pretty crowed. The danios are zipping about and the betta flares often has his bubble nest in the corner, so it seems that no one is bothering one another too bad. Especially since the algae eater just sucks to the glass and stays out of the way of eeryone. I...

:lol: Tested by a professional and got a great "review"! I took about a quarter cup of water from the tank and had it tested at "Bob's Tropical Fish" store. The attedant said that the water looked perfect! He asked what I was using as a filtration and I bragged on my Explorers Bio-wheel...

It's really not true. Here's more information on this wonderful breed. I am by far not an expert but I am a member of a betta comminity much like this one but only dedicated to bettas called Healthy Betta. www.healthybetta.com

I found this website while researching for a friend. I think it will be fun to post here. I plan on making several aquariums for our home and office. I love bettas be/c they are hardy fish and relatively easier to care for. :( I am howver sadden to see the abuse this poor fish puts up with...

First post here. I am wanting to know if zebra danios needed a filtered aquarium or not. I three small male zebra danios "Hughie, Loui, and Dooey" in a Mainland Explorer 2 gal 3 stage filtered (bio-wheel 7) aquarium. The aquarium is also home to a red betta "Bob" and this question was asked...
