After Fish less cycle in 21 days of my 8 gallon tank and I brought 3 gold barb and 2 Red Eye tetra. And I ask in this forum how it is ?? People told me that both are not good for 8 gallon tank. So i go to my LFS change them with beta fish. Then after putting him in my tank I check my water parameter it was 0 ammonia and 10 nitrite. So I change water 50 - 70 % and add some prime water. Then today afternoon when I check parameter it is okay 0 ammonia and 0 nitrite.

But beta fish behavior is something wired he is swimming good some and some time go bottom of the tank seat for some seconds and then again start swimming . and there is one corner where is my airstone and water heater every time it goes there and seat for a while.

Sometime I think may be here in kuwait temperature is getting cool and so water is also cold may be the reason. Some body advice me how much temprature should put.
 
Hi, does the tank have a fliter? If so what filter, and how strong is the current?
Take out the airstone and see if he prefers it without it, most bettas dont enjoy airstones but some do.
A good temperatue is 27.
