    Injured betta?

    I went to clean my bettaā€™s tank. He is a twintail halfmoon betta. I moved his tank into my kitchen and he jumped out onto the counter without my knowledge. I accidentally placed the tank full of water on top of half his body. I found him within 5 minutes and quickly threw him back into the tank...

    Christmas Stocking Craziness - please help!

    Had to leave the forum for a week or two... but I am back! And with plenty of questions ;) I'm very fortunate to have friends and family that support this hobby, although none of them seem to really understand it. That became apparent this Christmas when a few decided to buy me fish unaware of...

    Betta- Before and After a loving home!

    Saw a ton of threads on posting progress photos of your fish, generally their change with colors and vibrancy, and I figured Honey is a fantastic example of that! Honey isn't a fancy betta, no flowy fins, the "wild" type of betta splendens. I got her on the rack of "less desirable" bettas next...

    Male or Female Betta?

    A few months ago my girlfriend and I purchased a female Betta for our fish tank. Over the last couple of days she/he has been making what looks like a bubble nest? I have attached some pictures, can anyone confirm the gender of our Betta fish please?

    Change of colors

    I have a male Betta fish, his name is 'Jergens' and when I bought him his colors where a weird and beautiful mix (white, red, turquoise and black). He look like a splash of watercolor, honestly. But then he got sick and started loosing his pigmentation, his fins looked bit off, as if he did it...

    Adding fish during a planted cycle?

    I'm currently re-cycling my tank after a worm population boom. I already have my eye on a particular betta, but the issue is it's only up for bid until Friday. Assuming I got him, my tank will only have been cycling for at least a week (at most two depending on when he's shipped). Would it be...

    Betta Fish Sick?

    Hi! I have had my betta fish Max for over a year now. He's always been a happy fish. However, about two weeks ago I noticed he was sitting at the bottom of the tank without a lot of movement. He was also gasping. I removed him from the tank and then did a water change, cleaning the tank with...
