choosing a
tank
It's a
common myth that bettas thrive in small amounts of water. Some people
even say that they prefer to be in a tiny bowl. Often you'll hear;
“Bettas naturally
live in rice paddies the size of puddles. It's common
for them to live in less then an inch of water.”

all about
water
Water parameters
describe the general conditions and compounds of your
water. When your betta is sick, for instance, one of the first things
you should look at (after his symptoms) are the water parameters. It's
necessary to observe the parameters regularly. To do this you will be
required to purchase some test kits that, through a simple procedure,
will tell you the compound concentrations of your water. Many fish
stores will test your water for you for free when you bring them a
sample. Some of these tests will be checked daily, some every couple of
days and others weekly.
