Okay, let's choose between these tanks....?

Question

Okay, go to http://www.petco.com/petco_Page_PC_productlist_Nav_24+115.aspx

and choose between these four tanks, what would be the best for my betta:

Imagine Premium Goldfish bowl

Imagine Betta Bowl Kit

Marina Betta Kit

Lee's Dual Betta Hex (Without the divider, of course.)

Pick one! Which ever is best for little Sammy here. You will have to look through all the pages though.

Oops... of course you have to go to the Fish-Aquariums and Bowls first...

Answer 1

None as they are far too small and you will not be able to heat them well enough.

Once again, here's a good article for you to read on proper care for your betta:

"The second problem is temperature control. Temperature fluctuations are extremely stressful to all fish including Bettas. Small bodies of water are much more susceptible to temperature fluctuations than large bodies of water. A small vase of water will heat up in the sun and cool down at night, etc. If these small containers are not placed in a very temperature-controlled environment, away from sunlight and all drafts, the fish will become sick and die. The third problem has to do with water quality. Fish produce a large amount of ammonia through breathing and bodily waste. This ammonia builds up and needs to be converted by bacteria to nitrite, which then needs to be converted to nitrate. The nitrate then needs to be periodically removed from the water by removing old water and adding new water. If any of these waste products build up, they can be stressful and eventually deadly to the fish. The problem with small containers is that it is difficult for enough bacteria to establish a good working biological filter to remove the ammonia and nitrite. As a result, very frequent water changes are needed to keep the water from becoming toxic. The best environment for Bettas would include a larger (6 plus gallons) aquarium with a completely functional mechanical and biological filter. A heater, lights, and appropriate substrate and cover for the fish would be added."

However, you choose to house your betta as you see fit. Just keep in mind he is trusting you with his life, because there is nothing else he can do at this time. He's supposed to live to be between 3 and 5 years old - in any of those death traps that you're looking at for him, I give him six months to a year to live. And in that time, I can guarantee he will end up with ich or fin rot at some point.

Sponge Bob Square Pants Bikini Bottom Aquarium Kit looks pretty good but is 4times the price of what I believe you want to pay
