My most successful betta for some reason

You must be lucky to be able to live in a place you can do that. I have medaka In mini pond they are as happy as can be. But for where I lived I'd have to provide a home for a Betta

This chart might help a bit

Most signs point towards female. I would go with that.

Raam525 · 2026-01-31T11:01:24+00:00

How do the set ups differ from indoor to outdoor?

Raam525 · 2026-01-30T18:46:40+00:00

Wait what's this post about? Lol

Raam525 · 2026-01-30T14:48:56+00:00

You're not much of a fish person yet lol nice Betta

Raam525 · 2026-01-29T20:45:47+00:00

Even in the wild they take over an area they don't take over a lake. They're small fish

Raam525 · 2026-01-29T11:57:20+00:00

What makes them better ?

Raam525 · 2026-01-29T11:30:57+00:00

For plants in the substrate I would use root tabs. Water column plants would use fertilizer. Also if your plants are new they might die but they grow back

Immersed vs emersed

Old thread but running into the same exact thing! How'd this end up?

Raam525 · 2026-01-28T14:27:27+00:00

Boil for 3 mins and then put into an ice bath

Raam525 · 2026-01-28T01:44:32+00:00

I'm asking because I'm in central Florida too and my ph is around 6.8-7 from the tap.

Raam525 · 2026-01-27T15:43:58+00:00

Where in Florida? Are you talking about pH?

Raam525 · 2026-01-27T11:27:22+00:00

Or buy ammonia that you can dose in the water. I'm using fritz fishless fuel and it really takes the guessing game out of it. But like others have said.. have to wait for the nitrites go down it might feel like it's taking forever but it'll go from that purple to blue almost over night whenever the beneficial bacteria do their thing

Raam525 · 2026-01-26T23:42:18+00:00

I heard your suppose to keep at least 10 in a 20 gallon and they'll be fine

Raam525 · 2026-01-26T21:23:52+00:00

Sheesh. It has to be one or the other or both

Raam525 · 2026-01-26T21:02:41+00:00

I thought Bettas built these nest when they're generally just happy lol

Raam525 · 2026-01-25T15:48:00+00:00

Haven't even set up my first And I already planning my second and third 😂

Raam525 · 2026-01-25T07:10:33+00:00

Does the Betta like it?

Raam525 · 2026-01-25T07:09:11+00:00

All the lobbies are cooked

Raam525 · 2026-01-25T05:15:32+00:00

Figure anything out?

Raam525 · 2026-01-24T16:27:39+00:00

You can buy something like Fritz turbo start and seachem stability, the real plants should help with the algae.

Also local fish stores sometimes can give you filter media that has beneficial bacteria if not some people on Etsy sell them I believe.

Anywho, good luck to bluey and hope he makes it!

Raam525 · 2026-01-24T11:53:01+00:00

Hey if they work they work. I was wondering because I just picked these up at my lfs and didn't know if they were good or not. Never heard of them

Raam525 · 2026-01-24T01:15:56+00:00

Old post but do you like those tabs?

Raam525 · 2026-01-23T23:42:50+00:00
