The Betta Owner's Manual
$79.00
A betta kept the way the display cup implies lives six to nine months. The same fish in a heated, filtered, cycled tank lives three to five years and behaves like a completely different animal.
What is inside
- A side-by-side table of what the pet aisle implies versus what the fish needs
- Tank, heater and filter specification, including how to baffle a filter that is too strong
- Decor that will not tear long fins, and the pantyhose test
- Feeding: portion size, variety, soaking pellets and the weekly fast
- A ten-row tankmate compatibility table, from corydoras to shrimp to guppies
- Normal behaviour that worries new owners: flaring, bubble nests, napping, surfacing
- A health quick-reference for the six problems bettas actually get
Who it is for
First-time betta owners, and anyone who was told a bowl on the desk would be fine.
