I love to keep fish as my pet.One of my fish is a betta fish.I have been calling him Jambu because he is pink in colour (and we call pink as Merah Jambu in Malay).He is super cute and beautiful.I love him so I made some research on how to take care of a betta fish like him.Then,I decided to share with you guys what I've got from the research.
Firstly,a male betta fish cannot be kept together with another male betta fish.If you are willing to have an aquarium with a lot of fish in it,a male betta fish would not be the best choice for you.I've read from some bloggers that say you can keep your male betta fish with the other fish if your fish is not as agressive as other betta fish out there.It's kinda like 'different betta fish has different attitude' I think.However,to me,I personally think that a betta fish should not be kept with the other fish as it looks more comfortable to be alone.
Besides,a female betta fish is quite different.They love to swim together WITH ANOTHER FEMALE BETTA FISH in a group than to be alone.However,I think you should not keep them with another type of fish such as a goldfish as they may tear the fish fins or tail.Thus,it is better if you keep them in their own species-specified tank than a community tank.
Next,do not put your betta fish beside another fish tank as this can make your betta fish feel like he wanna fight but the tank don't let him to fight.This actually can make your fish feel stressed and don't want to swim actively like he used to.Thus,put your betta fish tank away from another fish tank so your lovely betta fish won't feel stress and his colour would be more beautiful than before.Try it !
Other than that,some betta fish (like mine) love to see the natural scenery like plants,sky and other natural things.So,you can put some aquatic plants in your betta fish tank or maybe put your tank outside of your house.My betta fish used to look stressed when I put him in my bedroom (I just wanna see him everyday before I sleep!).However,everything changed when I put my betta fish tank at the outside of my house(Yeah,I sacrified for him.....).From there,he can see the sky and also some plants that my mother and I plante
Last but not least,be sure to change your betta fish water if it looks dirty.But remember,do not do it too regularly like once in two days.You can change it maybe once a month because betta fish cannot handle a regular water change.They might feel dizzy and stressed if you kepp changing its water too regularly.Thus,do the water change only when you need to.
Well,I think these are all from me (for now).I will write more about betta fish later on another pages later.Hope to see you again in the next page. ;))
