My betta fish - Update nr 4 (New tank for Grimm!)

In this update Ive got a surprise for both you and my Betta fish Grimm! Its a brand new tank!! This tank is called "Deco O Fish r Fun Aquarium", and Ive ordered it from a swedish website called Rilo Zoopermarket! If you are from Sweden and want them to order one for you, please contact them on info@rilo.se. Ive seen these tanks on ebay and other sites in other countries as well, so you people who arent from Sweden may google the tanks name and im sure you will find somewhere to buy it from! The Deco O tank ive ordered is on 10 litres and in a white color. There is also tanks in black and silver, and on 20 litres. Another similiar tank is called "Deco Hexagon" and is on 15 litres, but I couldnt buy either the 20 litres or the Deco Hexagon since Rilo Zoo didnt have them in stock at the moment. But in the future I may upgrade the tank to one of them! The Deco tank is NOT a bowl! Only the plastic boards around the aquarium are round, but the cellophane sides are in straight and flat glass, and wont make your Betta get any problems with swim-bladder, so thats good! Never ever use a bowl or vase for a fish. The bended glass make them loose their balance and get swim-bladder! Thats really important. The Deco O has a lid at the top wich is the entrè to the tank. Under the lid the light is placed. There are both a feeding-hole as well as air-holes in the lid. The light has both daylight and moonlight vision. Daylight on daytime, and moonlight in night-time, and you can easily switch the light buy laying your hand on the top of the tank! There is a touch-screen on the top of the lid, so no on/off-tabs are existing! Cool huh? Compared to other aquarium filter- the Deco Os filter is placed at the bottom of the tank and you can easily place the air hose in small hooks along the side and then out through the lid to an airpump outside the tank. The water goes in at the bottom of the filter, and then it goes out in the top of it, in shape as bubbles. You can decide how much bubbles you want in the tank. Bettas likes bubbles, but they dont like when the water-stream is too strong, so you may use a small stream of bubbles in this tank. With the aquarium you will get the filter, filter-shelter, airhose, airpump, LED-lamp, a green fakeplant, 5 white decorationstones and gravel. You only need the fish and water! Im really excited for this new tank! Lets see you in the next update, when Ive finally got my brand new Deco O aquarium as a new home to my Betta!
So, it sounds like you don't want to get him a tank mate but if you change your mind ever, you could have with him: In the tank he's in now: 1 ghost shrimp, 1 cherry shrimp, possibly 1 african dwarf frog (although it would be riskey for your size tank!) 1-4 ramshorn/pond snail, 1-3 nerite snail, possibly 1 apple snail, if you got a bigger tank, your options would widen greatly :D but if you have 2.5 gal. I suggest you leave him single or get him a little companion, like a nerite/ramshorn/pond snail
