    Five Gallon Betta Hex Question

    I'm actually going to say that the bottle trick worked. He seems to be swimming all over the place without any issues. Even his fins barely move when he does swim near the current. Thanks for that website!

    Five Gallon Betta Hex Question

    I read that male Bettas are happy when they make bubble nests. Something about liking the environment enough to care for offspring? If that's the case, little Louie is thrilled.

    Five Gallon Betta Hex Question

    Oceangirl: Thanks! I just did this. It was super simple. Does it seem like it is working for you?

    Five Gallon Betta Hex Question

    That's a great idea! Would you mind posting a pic of where you taped the top? I'm not sure if this would work for that aquarium, but you have the same one so a visual would definitely help me determine what I need to do. Sorry for being a pain!

    Five Gallon Betta Hex Question

    Oh! And I also added a single flake of fish food every day. Forgot to add that and not sure how to edit on the mobile app. Sorry!

    Five Gallon Betta Hex Question

    I took a cup full of the aquarium gravel in Louie's old 1 gallon tank and used two cups of his water that he was in and poured it over the BIO-Wheel.

    Five Gallon Betta Hex Question

    Hello, everyone! This is my first time posting despite stalking the forums for the last month or so. I am writing in regards to how much water I should change in my five gallon hex aquarium? I have had this aquarium for about two weeks, but I spent the first week cycling the aquarium. Today...
