The apsoulute minimum for a betta fish is 2.5 but with my experience they do best in a 5 to 10 gallon. They also need a heater if your house isn't constantly warm.

I have the tank at 1:44. I was told it was a tank specified for a betta, but obviously that is wrong. I want to get him a bigger tank, but as of now i just had my dad go out and buy treatment for my 75 gallon after 2 of my fish got ich and died, infecting my tank. Until then, little Timmy has to swim in there. At least he's healthy, unlike my sisters who was in the same tank, but in darkness and she never cleaned it. Im trying to recover her betta. They have 10 gal aquariums at my walmart, so im thinking of getting a divider and giving them each 5 gallons

i have one of those .7 gallon tanks, and i honestly hate it. food gets stuck in the grate at the bottom and refuses to come out, even with running water through the grate. plus, i love decorating the tanks, and that thing is just too small. i don't go smaller then 1 gallon anymore because i love decorating my tanks with lots of live plants.

Eric Mezenberg - 7 years ago

Get a 5 gallon, great for 1 betta and lots of plants and nicer decor.

Gavin Stoodge - 7 years ago

Love the tanks but I couldn't help but notice how small that cage was for your guineapig/ rabbit. If that's a guinea pig, please get it a large c and c cage they are great I had one for my guinea pigs that I made for $20! And if it's a rabbit same thing but bigger!! Yeah haha I had that plant too for my turtles in their 25 gallon and it barely took up an inch of the space!

Although I don't agree with tanks below 1.5 gallons, it's better then them being in a cup at pets smart. Although I like 5 gallons better because it gives you more options for tank mates. Nice video!

n o - 7 years ago

Eric Mezenberg I just meant a snail or some shrimp.

Eric Mezenberg - 7 years ago

n o 10g is the best IMO, lots of good tank mates there, I have 3 African dwarf frogs with 2 female veiltail bettas in a 10g.

I bought a 20 gallon tank for my Betta Nigel . He loves it and with the new circulation pump . Nigel uses it as a mouse wheel he loves swimming against the current . With so much space , I bought him some friends & 3 girl friends .

Hazel Johnson - 7 years ago

Dude bettas can't live in a half gallon aquarium they need at least a 3 gallon

Eric Mezenberg - 7 years ago

Hazel Johnson did you notice that he had no fish in the small tanks and said it was way too small.

I'm trying to find a fish tank for under 25 dollars at Wal-Mart or petco. any suggestions? What size would be good for 25 dollars

Hickster58 - 7 years ago

CBC Fusionz You can buy a 10 or 5 gallon setup from walmart for $30, not sure what else they have or petco. Petsmart has some great tanks for around $25.

My new tank that I bought for a future Betta is 17L - around 3 gallons. I know it is above the 2.5 mark, but I want to know if he will be happy. I am planning in getting one close to 7 gallons later, because Australia is expensive.

Leilicorn - 7 years ago

Hickster58 :) alrighty, thank you for replying.

Hickster58 - 7 years ago

Leilicorn Mine seem to be happy in their 2 and 3 gallon tanks

Val's Craft and Designs - 7 years ago

Whats the smallest freshwater fish i could get? We have a 90L fish tank with 10 goldfish in and all of them have grown tremendously since. Im looking for a new freshwater fish species to put in a new tank in my bedroom. The tank will probably be about 50L but i don't want the fish to grow too big. Any ideas?

Hannaxx G - 7 years ago

The MLG Doge Virus. Guppies multiply so fast. But maybe he should try neon tetras

Austin Hebb - 7 years ago

Fact Planet you need a bigger tank with all of those goldfish

KAWAII FOXY - 7 years ago

You should get guppies

Hickster58 - 7 years ago

Fact Planet Smallest I can think of of rasboras and sparkling gouramis, both get to only around an inch.

Katie Wilson - 7 years ago

I have my betta fish Milo in a one gallon for now but someday I'm going to get him a bigger tank there is a 5.5 gallon tank at Meijer's and it is only 13 dollars the one gallon was 12 dollars but my mom dident want to drive to Meijer's lol so for now he has to deal XD I feel bad for him :( but I think he will be fine I'm getting my temps. soon so one day when I get my license then I can spoil him with the 5.5 gallon.

Andrew Sweeney - 7 years ago

Melody S I want to get another tank and my patents won't let me. Even tho it's would be going in MY own room and I would be paying for everything

Melody S - 7 years ago

Ella Taber $10 for a 20? Its only 45$ for a 10g tetra brand at walmart

Ella Taber - 7 years ago

Go to walmart for 10$ 20 gallon tank

Melody S - 7 years ago

Saltine Cracker im sorry to hear, maybe she's the crazy one? Who would be paying for the tank tho, because honestly that could be a reason why she doesn't want to get one since they can be quite pricy, have you offered to pay for half? Or pay it youself?

Saltine Cracker - 7 years ago

when i did that she just said "those people are crazy you don't need all that just throw him in a tupperware box"

Melody S - 7 years ago

Ella Taber show your mom some videos about betta care and smother her with facts,

I'm planning to spoil my beta I have a 40 gallon tank and a 2.5 gallon tank which one should I put him in?

Hannaxx G - 7 years ago

L3GENDS 0F B0SS7 3. U can always use spitters or dividers so he still has room but not so he is overwhelmed by the space

Type 40 - 7 years ago

40 Gallon is a bit much for a Betta to be honest

Hickster58 - 7 years ago

L3GENDS 0F B0SS7 3 Either will work, but I'm sure he would love the 40 more than the 2.5, lol:D

I have a 30 gallon with 4 female bettas, 3 cory doras, and 3 platties.

Makenzie Bailey - 7 years ago

Platinum Falls also, along with the 5 minimum for cories, it's better if you keep a sorority of 5 female bettas at least. They've probably already set up their order, but if anything ever happens and you're getting more female bettas, I'd really encourage a 5 minimum for those, too. Not trying to lecture or anything since it sounds like your tank is working fine, but just for future reference with a sorority because of how potentially dangerous they are.

KingQueen Cersei - 7 years ago

Platinum Falls nice! You should probably get some more corydoras, they like to be in groups of 5+. And I think you've got the room for it.

Hickster58 - 7 years ago

Platinum Dunes Sounds like a cool tank!

EXPLICIT _MUSIC - 8 years ago

you should not keep your first fish tank on that it is not leveled it has a chance of breaking or cracking search it up

EXPLICIT _MUSIC - 8 years ago

No problem

Hickster58 - 8 years ago

I've had them on it for almost two years, no issues yet. if they are bigger tanks, then I could see an issue happening, but thanks!

Kay Wilkerson - 8 years ago

Love when people give bettas the space they need to show their real personalities. Nice video.

Eric Mezenberg - 7 years ago

I have a 10g with 2 females, I know that you normally shouldn't have just 2 but they get along great and are docile and don't nip ever.

Hickster58 - 8 years ago

Thanks!

Robert Kowalke - 8 years ago

it's Bay-tuh no biggie though, and it is a fish so it's not a Betta Fish (We know it's a fish). Sorry just too many horrible terms around the world regarding the best lil fish in the world.

Link From hyrule - 7 years ago

Robert Kowalke Bruh it's betta

Robert Kowalke - 8 years ago

Yeah I know lol been a huge problem in the hobby for years. It's very hard for a breeder to listen to people explain things about an animal they can't even properly say. The name is actually standard in the original texts from when it's classification was 1st published.

Try my hardest though lol Oh well

Hickster58 - 8 years ago

Depends on who you ask, many people say betta differently. Many people also say betta fish, all depends on where your from.

Your tank reminds me of a little shallow river with the gravel.

Kenneth Reyes - 8 years ago

Please move that black and white betta fish from tht tank, move it to a different tank that isnt being used.

Kenneth Reyes - 8 years ago

For the first tank that is.

Martell C - 8 years ago

I just appreciate the people who don't use small fish bowls for Betta fish

Fifuln - 7 years ago

ah I know, I used to keep mine in a small tank and I watched some videos and it made me open my eyes and I was dissapointed in myself so I bought a 6.5 gallon tank and he lives peacefully with my 3 other fish in it

Hickster58 - 8 years ago

Thank you, same here.!

Kyle Smith - 8 years ago

how much is that tank

Kady Krzeminski - 8 years ago

hi, I know i'm late!

I have the first tank, which I got from petsmart. It came with a light, a filter, a hood, and a filter cartridge it was 28 dollars on sale, and when I bought plants, water conditioner,a heater, food, and gravel it was 100+ dollars. my betta loves it. as mentioned, it was 5.5 gallons, and I have 1 little "house" in it, 1 silk plant, 1 glow in the dark plant, and about 5 pounds of gravel in there. I do 1/2 water changes once every 2 weeks, and change the filter cartridge every month. my fish lives on a diet of flakes, pellets, and brine shrimp. he is very healthy. honestly, a 2.5 gallon is the minimum to me. my betta used to be in a half gallon bowl and he was miserable. I would say this is good for 1 male or a sorority of 2 females.

hope this helped! :)

Kyle Smith - 8 years ago

I have a betta too and I'm gonna try to do this idea

Matilda Collins - 8 years ago

Sounds alright. but it'd probably prefer 5+ gallons. Tues. I'm getting a 10 gal. at Walmart for $14

Iraq Lobster - 8 years ago

+Hickster58 I have a 3.5gal tank with a filter,a heater,rocks, 3 live plants, a baby snail and a multi coloured LED lights is that a good tank

Hickster58 - 8 years ago

Nice!

boscoitalics - 8 years ago

such pretty bettas! my blue betta lived a year and a bit in m y 5 gallon tank.i hope to get another betta next week. can bettas live with other tiny fish or will they eat them?

justin johnson - 8 years ago

+Hickster58 you should watched fishforme2 and thats the real deal

Hickster58 - 8 years ago

+The fish rule today It'll still keep water cleaner, and that's why I do multiple water changes each week

Hickster58 - 8 years ago

Thanks:) I wouldn't put other fish with bettas in anything smaller than a 10 gallon. Different bettas have different personalities and some won't bother anything else and others will attack everything.
