I'd recommend a 5 gallon tank (minimum) with a filter and a heater. They can survive in bowls but they like room to move and are healthier with the filter and heater. Just make sure the flow of the filter is not too high. Make sure you condition the water (I use Prime) before adding it to the tank. Weekly water changes of about 25% will keep your fish healthy. Feed about 3 of the little betta bites per day (doesn't seem like much but it's plenty).

a million) There are a few tips you'll be able to, like swimming via hoops, leaping of meals, flaring on command, or effectively swimming over when you faucet the glass. two) five gallons, heater, filter out with silk vegetation and different tender decorations. Bettas are tropical, two gallons does no longer preserve warmness very good and they're very volatile in terms of their water chemistry, in addition they want stimulation, an empty tank will honestly bore them and lead them to gradual. three) preserve up with the water alterations 25% two times every week for the primary 6 weeks (even as the bacterial colonies determine) and 20% every week from them, make certain to regard the water with the conditioner and allow it take a seat out for a minimum of a couple of hours four) two-three pellets 6 occasions every week, upload a bloodworm or a brine shrimp each and every four-five days five) As lengthy as viable, while you do a water difference, replenish the bucket, upload the conditioning liquid and allow it take a seat out till the following difference

Get a nice 5g tank with light, filter and heater. Some nice gravel or sand, normal natural colors are best. I prefer black sand myself, highlights the betta nicely.
Add broad leafed plants either real or fabric and a cave to hide in.
Feed them 2x a day with Hikari Betta Bio-gold Pellets, 2-3 pellets a serving. Supplement with freeze dried bloodworms.
Change 20% of the water weekly.
Enjoy your betta :)

First of all, call it by its proper name; Betta.
Get a 5 gallon tank with filter and heater.
Feed once a day and do water changes every 2 weeks.
