i want my fish to grow

[purdypinay]

i was wondering how do you get those pretty big fins i see in the fallery pictures on some websites? special food? tips on water?

A healthy, balanced and varied diet may help. As well as keeping an eye out for the 'home' your fish is living in.

depends on what type of fins you have. plakads/plakats dont have very long fins, this is a possiblity for your fish. your fish also may have finrot which eats away at the fins. may we see your fish possibly?

i've alerady had 2 bettas...one died....and the other one is currently..."sick" i clean the tank..feed it regularly...but would a variety of food be good cuz i've only tried bio-gold pellets? and plants? i've used rocks i dont know what benifit it does for them but any suggestions would help

How often do you clean the tank? Have you tried adding some BettaMax?

well a varieyt of food is alwsy good. Frozen bloodworms is a great addition to any betta's diet i feed my pellets, frozen bloodworms, frozen brine shrimp, and peas

are you talking about bettas like this?

if so, it is probably a different tail type than yours. if your came from the pet store it is probably a veiltail and it probably looks like this.
