Having originated from the warm and shallow waters of Southeast Asia, Betta fish prefer water with a low current or no current at all, as this allows them to easily reach the water's surface to breathe. Their preference for shallow water with little to no current also explains why Bettas are often seen in fishbowls opposed to Betta fish tanks. While neither a bowl nor a tank is better than the other, it's important that the water quality is properly maintained. This is why water conditioners, such as TetraAqua BettaSafe Water Conditioner, is necessary in making a safe and comfortable environment for your Betta fish to swim, leave and to breathe.

For bringing out the vibrant reds and blues from your pet Bettas, there is an assortment of brightly colored gravel and gravel accents available. There are also a variety of ornaments that help to create an interesting theme within most Betta bowls and tanks, such as a pair of military soldiers, a tropical plant or coral, an exotic Tiki Head or a fun hanging ornament that features a little boy fishing that sits on top of the bowl's rim. As with all pets, remember to provide your pet Betta with the food pellets and freeze-dried bloodworms that he enjoys. Provide excellent Betta fish care with the right Betta supplies today!
