He never is! I had one before and it ate a lot and he never eats

Normally, are they active? Do they normally swim around? Or do they just sit there in one spot for a long time? Also, do they make good, entertaining pets?

I have a betta that was purchased from petsmart, and it lives in a 2.5 gallon tank with a small heater. His tank stays between 78-82 degrees. Its got a filter, but I honestly dont like using it as it seems to blow him around a little bit. I change/partially change his water frequently. Its been...

I've been asking questions about fish lately, and one person said that getting 4 or more female betta fish in a 20 gallon tank is safe, not sure that it's true or not. will they kill each other? or would they live peacefully?

I've been taking care of betta fish for 5 years. I've been noticing that when I first buy my fish, their tail fins are curved in a C when they fan their tails out. But after a while of owning them, about 5 months, I noticed their tail gets ragged. I don't think it is fin rot, because their tail...

Also - do I need aeration for the tank?

bought a crowntail betta yesterday and my male fish is laying on his side near the top of the bowl. He didn't have much swimming room because he is in the container he came in (I don't have the proper water) I fed him pellets and he refuses to eat... I don't want him to die and he kind of looks...

i just got a male crowntail betta fish about 2-3 days ago. since ive gotten him, he keeps flaring his gills, what does that mean? will he eventually stop? is he just trying to get used to his new home? what do i do? thank you for your help :)

Okay so I have this beautiful betta fish named Brutus and I've had him for about 3 months now and I've bought him from PetSmart. He has been healthy when I've bought him but now he's sick. Symptoms: Clamped gills, Likes to stay in the bottom of the tank motionless, greenish blobs around his...

i've had my betta fish for around a year and a half..he was a gift and i know that sometimes when you find a betta fish from a pet store they may already be a few months old.. i just get worried about him sometimes because i love him so much <3 well, for maybe a few months i've noticed he...

I've had a betta for about a year, and when I first got him he would always start freaking out when I got near the tank. I used to alternate between feeding him pellets and flakes, and every week I would skip one feeding to keep him from getting bloated. Well, now whenever I feed him, he looks...

I have a 30 gallon tank, recently purchased. I already had a betta so I put him in there last night. I just bought 6 fish, 2 swordtail platys, 2 lemon tetras, and 2 red-eyed tetras. How do I introduce these fish to the betta and vice versa?

My betta fish died today and i want to get another one. i have no idea what to name it! I am getting a boy. i already had these names: Sun Fire Bubbles Baby Jack
