Aquarium Advice Newbie
Please forgive my ignorance. I know nothing about fish-I'm trying to learn quickly. My wife bought a male betta which she put in a 1 gallon bowl. For food she bought HBH Betta Bites and freeze-dried blood worms. I've read a lot of contradictory information, so I'm soliciting advice. I'd like to take care of the fish as best I can.
Problem #1: We have two CATS. Only one is a threat to the fish (one is all it takes, huh?) We don't really have a place where we can put the fish where the cats can't get. Does anyone out there have any creative ways of discouraging cats from a 1 gallon bowl?
Also, the water in the bowl has bubbles on the surface. The fish has been in the bowl for 3 days. Is this a problem?
Finally, is there a good resource I can use to learn more about what I should be doing? I've been surfing around and haven't found a whole lot until I found this site.
Thanks for any help you can give.
