    Causes of Betta darting?

    I've had the same issue as well, but she stopped after I changed 25% of her water, since it was getting dirty already somehow. I wouldn't recommend following my advice, though, since I've only been with her for five or four days.

    Heater is EXTREMELY hot...

    It was 77 Fahrenheit according to the thermometer, and the heater adjusted it to 78. I bought it because it gets very cold in Canada during the winter (Last time, my fish actually froze to death a couple years ago during a particularly cold one) I moved her into the cup she came in with the...

    Betta fish questions..

    Ack! Could you please quickly confirm for me that Bo is female before I give her tank mates? I'll add a picture of her in a moment. https://ibb.co/g042uF https://ibb.co/iYrhuF

    Heater is EXTREMELY hot...

    I just got Bojangles, my better, a heater today. It has warmed the water a bit, but when I brushed my finger against it, it was hot enough to scorch my fingers :( I quickly removed Bo from the bowl in order to prevent her from getting burnt, do all heaters get very warm like this, or should I...

    It says "Female Veiltail" on the cap of the cup that we bought her in. (But the pet store might be lying XD)

    Yessir! How do I take and post a picture on a Mac? (I'm horrible at technology) (Or I can look for an old picture, although I dunno if I can find it)

    Betta fish questions..

    We have a very large tank with three arowanas inside, and the three arowanas are pretty docile, and I doubt they'll be able to cram a betta into their mouths. There is absolutely at least 40g to spare for the bettas, but I'm more worried about the bettas attacking the poor arowanas. I also read...

    Betta fish questions..

    That's good to know! However, I'm worried that five bettas in a 20 gallon tank might be a bit cramped... would another three be okay, or if I added a male? Also, do you know if they get along with arowanas, and what finger nipping is supposed to signify? (I just fed her a pellet and she bit my...

    Betta fish questions..

    I just adopted my friend's betta to prevent it from getting flushed down the drain, and she's currently in a 20 gallon tank with no other tank mates. However, the water is definitely at least three celsius too cold for her, and I'm unable to purchase a heater for her until tomorrow. She's been...
