will my betta be okay if I don't add aquarium salt into it's water? Will conditoner for bettas do? cause i add conditioner into it. i read that if you don't add aqauruim salt into it's water, it would likely get sick. Help!?

It'll be fine with or without salt. If you use salt don't use more than the recommended dosage (I use less than half the dosage anyway). I haven't seen water conditioner specifically for bettas (marketing gimmick I guess), but any conditioner/dechlorinator for fish in general should be fine.

if u dont put in salt, and it gets sick... adding salt can help it get better.

no-bettas are fine wihtout salt. they wont get sick if you dont add it. the likeliness of them getting sick is increased but they can do fine without it if you do regular water changes and so forth...
personally though-i add it to mine
