New Betta

[Little Sushi]

Hi, I'm sorry if this has been answered a million times before... I want to buy a new Betta this weekend to replace (well, fill the void) of my little man who died last night.

Should I buy a bigger tank? I curently have a 3 litre tank (which the pet store guy in the aquarium section said is more than big enough, but I'm getting very suspicious of all pet store people). Also, should I buy new rocks and ornaments? I'm scared of cross contamination.

Thanks heaps, Clair

me again...give them all a good scrub with a brush then soak in aqua salt and water then rinse and rinse again under clean water. you can put him in that tank or splash out for a bit bigger. good luck

Three liters is very small. I'd definitely go for bigger, like three times that size at least.

thanks heaps to both of you! i will buy a new tank, and buy some other rocks to mix up the colours a bit (with the ones I already have)! thanks again for the tips!!!
