I know that there is already a thread abou this but i have a different question.
I now have only the one betta a small 1.5 gallon tank with an undergravel filter. When i clean it...(i know someone said to use a small syphon or a turky baster to clean the gravel) But should i take the fish out first? i really am sort of new at the small tank thing and i know next to nothing!
Should the fish come out and if so where do i put him while i am cleaning? How do i go about cleaning under the filter since the gravel is on top? do i take everything out? I have heard that it is not a good idea to do that but how else can i get under there? Should i do a full water change or a partial? When i am putting the betta back in should i make the water the smae tempertaure or should i float him for a while???
Need some help please!!!
