Betta Fish: Myths and reality!? How to care and how to Train?
Hi!

For a biology project, I have chosen to ‘train’ a fish into doing something (swim through a hoop, soccer, jumping out of the water slightly..).

I am planning on doing this in a week, and I’ve been doing some research lately about fish caring (since I’ve owned over a dozen of fish when I was younger and they all died pretty fast , I want to do it right this time).

I was thinking of getting a Betta Fish, but before I do so I just want to confirm all I’ve been seeing lately on the internet, whether it is true or not.

I am planning on keeping my betta in a fish bowl, this as far as I’ve read is fine as long as it is about 1 gallon, and I clean it out every 2-days (change about 20% of the water). The water should have been left out for at least 24 hours to release all the bad chemicals. I should feed the fish floating food or blood worms, and only as much as it can eat within 2minutes. Elsewhere I should remove the food to keep the bowl clean. I should let enough surface area since bettas need oxygen as well and I shouldn’t fill the bowl up completly since they jump.

I hope I have everything correct until now? Please correct me If I’m wrong…I really don’t want to kill the fish.

Betta fish can only live alone, so one fish per bowl.

I should use cultured gravel — Question: Where can I Find cultured gravel, do I just go to the pet store and ask for it? If it is to expensive (I don’t have that much money to work around with at the moment..) is it okay if I don’t get it now and perhaps later? or is it an absolute must?–

Also…can I get a live plant? some websites say it is okay and rather good since it creates oxygen or something? others say it’s bad though…if I CAN get a live plant (like algae or something), which kind should I get?

OKAY! so that’s all I have for the lifestyle wise of the fish…now onto the training part!

I don’t intend on buying one of those ‘train your fish kits’ unless it’s absolutely necessary..is it?

I’m not sure what to do about the feeding…I know that to train it I should let it be hungry in order for it to want the food…but I don’t want it to DIE of starvation…

Is there anyway of knowing when enough is enough?

If I use a stick (that I clean without soap!) to put the food on the end for example, in order to make the betta go where I want it to go…if the betta touches the stick would that be harmful to it? (I don’t want to hurt it…)

That’s all I have to ask for now…oh and when I buy the betta, is there anything I should look out for? Because I’ve been around a bit, and some places the fish look very down (their fins and all are pointing down) and other places the fish are ‘flaring’ (like when they’re about to fight I guess)…is there one that is preferable over the other?

If anyone has any other comment/suggestions please tell me!

Thank you alot in advance

A heater is not required, but a constant temperature is. He needs to be somewhere where the temperature isn’t constantly fluctuating. You do not need a water change every two days, because everytime you change water, it is stress added to your Betta. A weekly 25% change will do fine. I have never used cultured gravel and that’s never been an issue either. Be sure to thoroughly soak and rinse the gravel you are going to use beforehand.

Fake plants are a fine alternative to real plants. Try for tall silk ones rather than plastic, as plastic can hurt sensitive fins. Bettas don’t need oxygen directly from the water because they are labyrinth fish. They have a special organ in their head called the labryinth that gives them the ability to get oxygen from the surface. Be sure to have at least one plant tall enough to stand a little above the water line. This gives the Betta a clear definition of where the water ends and greatly reduces jumping.

I also feed my Bettas dried bloodworms. Some just refuse the pellets. In the wild Bettas do eat larvae so I can understand pellet form being unappealing, but worth a shot. (Maybe I got stuck with all the picky eaters?!)
I treat with live food. Live Brine Shrimp are inexpensive and last for awhile.

As far as choosing a Betta, this is the website I have used as a reference:
http://www.healthybetta.com/choosing-a-h ealthy-betta-to-purchase

The most I have ever gotten my Bettas to do is jump.
I did this by first putting the food into the water and kept my finger viewable about the water line, but far enough to where I wasn’t a threat. I gradually worked my finger closer over a few days until they ate right off my finger.

Bodda bing, bodda boom, conditioning! They now associate my finger with food. Regardless of how high it is from the top of the water. They’ll jump out of the water towards your finger for their food. It’s not something I do too often though. You don’t want to tease them!

Hope I helped!

Bettas are tropical fish, meaning they need their water to be 72-76 degrees fahrenheit, if they are not kept warm they will be lethargic and eat very little, they are cold blooded after all.

Bettas need some swimming space, if they don’t they could get bored and nip at their own fins (like some people chew their nails when bored, or some bird pluck their feathers). Also, provide him with some plants and decorations to help keep boredom at bay. DO NOT put a mirror in the tank. He will attack his reflection, and as entertaining as it may be for some people, your little betta could injure himself.

Be sure the tank is on a level, sturdy surface that wont get bumped or jostled, as that can put stress on the fish, and he will be more susceptible to disease. Add some aquarium salt to the water too, NOT marine salt. Aquarium salt is for fresh water fish and will help your little guys stay healthy. Marine salt is for brackish and salt water fish, and is not what you need.

Make sure you get a filter to maintain water quality, and be sure to set up the filter so there are no strong currents. Strong currents can tatter his fins.

Cultured sand is not a necessity as the bacteria needed for the nitrogen cycle is already present when you set up the tank. I have never used cultured sand in a fresh water aquarium.

If you want a plant get something hardy and easy to care for. Cryptocoryne wendtii and Cryptocoryne lutea are two of my personal faves as they are fairly easy to care for, and they are quite pretty and leafy.
Water Sprite is another hardy, pretty plant that only really needs to get trimmed. I had one take over half of a 20 gallon when I neglected to trim it for a while, and I didn’t even provide it with fertilizers or CO2.
If you only want one plant, you don’t really need any sort of fertilizing the substrate (ie: fluorite), you can use plain old gravel, just be sure not to get large gravel as it is harder for the plant to root itself in large gravel. Medium grain gravel is good for most plants, although some plants need a finer substrate (sand).
You will want to add a water column fertilizer though. Plant Gro by Nutrafin and FloraPride by Tetra are two examples of water column fertilizers.

One reason why bettas in the store are droopy is because their water is too cold.
Just look to make sure their fins are intact, eyes are clear, no scales are missing, and there are no growths or white patches on them.

As for training fish, I’m sorry but I have no experience with training them, so I can’t help you with that. Best of luck though.

In their natural habitat they live in very shallow, stagnant water with very low oxygen content due to the heat in Thailand. They have developed an accessory breathing organ called the labyrinth which they use to breath atmospheric air so they do not require aeration. The females live together relatively peacefully in community tanks. Generally the more females in the tank, the less aggressive they are with each other.

Managing a lot of fish in jars is not too bad once you develop a system for fast water changes. Every three days or so I would take a couple of buckets that the water had stabilized in and dump the jar through a soft net into the first bucket and refill from the second and plop Mr. Betta back in his jar. I’d do about 1/3 of my fish every day since I had a LOT of them.

They like it very warm. 80F is the idea temperature to encourage them to spawn. They detest low temperatures and will get very sluggish.

I’ve never known them to be jumpers, but I guess it’s possible. My jars usually had about 3" unfilled at the top.

Feeding then blood worms will spoil them and they won’t want to eat anything else. I fed mine TetraMin, but the commercial kind that comes in a big bucket that they use in fish stores. Healthy Bettas are always hungry so you don’t need to starve them! Just remember, his stomach is about the same size as his eye.

When you buy a Betta, look for long straight fin rays with no rips or holes. Make sure the eyes are clear. I haven’t raised fish in 25 years so I’m not sure what varieties are out there these days. Droopy fins are not necessarily a sign of poor health, just boredom. My fish often displayed for me at feeding time.

Live plants are fine as long as they are true water plants.

I never trained a Betta to do anything but eat and make more Bettas. I don’t think they are extremely bright fish, not like the Angelfish I raised years later, now they have personality!

Im 13, 5′0” and i think 95lbs.. im trying to tone up cuz i HATE my body!! btw, the smoothie was probably about my fruit for today.
I also take a teen advantage "one a day" multi vitamin! I dont care for veggies that much either. So with that smoothie and the vitamin, i should be getting enough nutrients, right? I also am not growing much anymore as far as height the doctor said. My boobs dont hurt anymore so im guessing they stopped growing too idk?? The only thing that could grow is fat, which i dont want, or my bones, really. But not height so dont say im still growing.. thanks (:
My mom stopped growing in 6th grade, shes 4′11” ish! And her boobs were pretty much the exact same size as mine now when she stopped growing, there only biger now cuz shes over weight!

Get more fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and water. All of those foods are low in calories. Decrease the amount of meat, dairy, and junk food you consume. All of those foods are high in calories. You can still eat them, especially junk food, but only eat them with meals. For example, eat a handful of chips with lunch, or eat a candy bar for an after-dinner dessert.

Also increase your exercise. Jogging on the treadmill for twenty minutes for five days is a start. You need to exercise. Exercise, without eating well will cause hunger. And eating well, without exercise will cause flabby skin. Here’s a sample of meals for the day:

breakfast:
-total cereal with milk
-an apple
-glass of water

lunch:
-turkey and cheese sandwich
-small bag of chips
-glass of water

dinner:
-salad with chicken breast
-apple
-glass of water
-two scoops of ice cream

Water is very important. Drink some with every meal. The weight will come off, but only at a rate between 1-8 pounds per week. If you’re not willing to be patient, you’re not willing to lose weight.

I have an assignment its about the Anne Frank book. (You don’t need to know anything about it)
There’s a few questions and it says 350-450 words. (yes, it’s easy, I’m in year 7)
I have 557 words.
I shortened it by a hundred words but i don’t know now!!

Do you think it matters that I have a hundred more words than what it says?
And, if you do, can you shorten this in any way?
Here it is:

1.My views on Anne Frank’s actions are that Anne did the right thing most of the time, like when Anne is being criticised by Mrs Van Daan she is polite and doesn’t reply to her. But I wouldn’t have done what Anne did, when Anne was being picked on and argued with by the adults, she just accepts this and pretends she doesn

Are there any "classy" women out there?
As a guy, I naturally would want a GF but as it turns out, girls are starting to be a huge turn off (no i’m not turning gay), but I am really considering to stay single.

Let me explain. I want a girl who is beautiful, loving, honest, caring, romantic, and overall, Loves God (yes i’m a christian).

However lately, I am finding that most women are just animalistic in behavior. Now i’m not saying all girls are, but here are my thoughts on it.

They have exchanged their virginity for slutty, they purity for pleasure, their love for lust, and whats worse, is most of all the girls out there even accept this way. I cannot tell you how much it breaks my heart to see another girl think sex is just a weekend event of pleasure and not the love one expresses to show they care about their mate.

So many times have I seen "oh he’s hot, so i had sex with him". Even a girl I liked at work is having sex with a guy who she says she doesn’t love but "likes".

Now people who don’t wait for marriage are feeling "left out" of the loop hole and want to go experimental. But don’t worry, the answers and advice is "its fun, do it". I can understand why guys would want to (they are hoping its them getting laid), but women encouraging it? Wow.

Maybe there is still a few good girls left in this world, but I feel sorry for all the rest. Sorry if you find this offensive ladies.

how can i add onomatopoeia to my poem.?
also what can i change.

Once upon a doom filled night,along that God forsaken road,
Aimlessly I walked as my shadow flickered in the streetlights eerie glow.
Beneath my feet the paving stones lay split asunder,
Echoing to a passing lorry’s roar and thunder,
That swiftly disappeared into the threatening dark.
Then, with rising horror clutching at my fearful heart,
I reached my journey’s end.
That hellish haunted house. What dreaded secrets did it hold?
And ere the night was through!

Then from the depths of Hell’s dark pit
A spectral owl perched on a branch,
And pierced my heart with soulless stare
That warned…No closer ,if you dare.
With gaping beak,it said to me,staring with it’s coal black eye,
"Leave now,leave now or you will die!"

I turned and fled,all reason gone,
With icy fingers clawing at my spine.
Return to that evil house and road accursed,I will refrain
If, with God’s help,my soul and sanity I might regain.
But in my mind I still hear that croaking voice and see that coal black eye
"Leave now,leave now or you will surely die!"

Running aimlessly, I found myself where I started
Lost in this small world where everything departed
The nocturnal creature shouting the same phrase
Alone in the same old haunted house he stays
I turned back and noticed the coal black eyes.
Blank, reflecting only the night sky.

Slowly, the door from the haunted house opened, but no one was there.
He dove through the door with the wind blowing threw his feathered body.
Everything was over before I knew it, and from where I came, I returned.
Everything was normal and forgotten. Everything I knew went unturned.
I did only notice one small change, possessed eyes of an owl that was unnaturally strange.
Not only had they grown in me.
But they also had grown in everyone around me.

What's the PROOF for global warming, climate change, or whatever "scientists" are calling it now?
It gets hot when the sun comes out and cool when it goes down. In the winter when we’re farther from the sun it’s obviously cooler. In the Earth’s history it has been both much colder and much warmer than it is now. These are all facts. Why should we believe that any slight changes that happen are somehow catastrophic and worth hurting the economy, hurting our businesses, raising taxes, sending jobs overseas and raising energy costs? Why are those that promote these theories so afraid to entertain the idea that this has to do with solar activity? As the average world temperatures have not gone up recenty, people that support the idea of "global warming" have changed to calling it "climate change" which seems to show that they have no clue what they’re talking about. Given the natural fluctuations in temperature, isn’t this just an evil way to politicize a natural occurance and wouldn’t the temperatures have went up more in recent years as China and other growning Countries create much more "greenhouse gases"? What is so bad about "greenhouse gas" anyway. A greenhouse works the way it does because it is built using glass, a solid, not a gas. Wouldn’t gas function more like a "screenhouse" and release heat faster? How exactly is Carbon Dioxide, a gas necessary for all plant life, a horrible thing?
Wow, congratulations to the really smart people that pointed out that winter has more to do with the angle of the Earth than the distance difference. I never said it didn’t have to do with the angle of the Earth however the hemisphere where there is winter is technically further away so it’s not incorrect. This isn’t a published article so I’m sorry I didn’t make myself clearer, or spend hours combing over my words, but I thought people would spend more time answering the questions than trivially editing them. I thought people were smart enough to identify the point that natural occurances cause drastic and quick temperature changes and solar phenomena shouldn’t be dismissed. Let this be a lesson to others that question global warming, you will not find proof, facts, or even much evidence from this cult because they don’t have any, rather you will just find childish name calling and corrections of minor semantics. Behold the new science, where name calling is the new proof.
Here’s a link to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s Greenland ice core findings and it puts things into perspective. Just think how much money Gore could make and how much power his party would have if we were actually in the process of a major natural fluctuation. Please explain what major industry caused the warming periods which dwarfed the current period, long before the "evil oil companies" came on the scene.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8mxmo9Dsk YE
So the proof of global warming being catastrophic and man made is "it’s warmer". Yeah…click the link above and you’ll realize that is NOT proof of anything.

That is pathetic and you really should be embarrassed. You might want to delete this question before too many people start laughing at you.

Seasons happen because of the directness of the sun’s rays, not proximity to the sun.

Really, do yourself a favor and read some science instead of political blogs.
JohnS | Feb 07, 2010

Ummm, errr, it’s got hotter?
Andrew | Feb 07, 2010

Yeah, yeah; it’s been climate change at least as long as there’s been an International Panel. the "name change" is just the stupidest of the denialist lies.

The second stupidest is that temperatures have not gone up recently.

The third stupidest is that climatologists haven’t taken solar fluctuations into account.

The fourth stupidest is that the changes coming down the line are too minor to bother about

The fifth stupidest is that since CO2 is necessary for plant life (true), more CO2 can’t be a bad thing.
