Is a 5-10 gallon tank + plants good enough for a betta tank? I’ve been doing my research but I could use a second opinion. Thank you
I'm not really the most well equipped to answer this but I'll still try. I would get a 10 or more gallon tank it would also need proper filtration and heating in order for it to be happy and thrive, thanks for going through the proper research to make sure your future betta will be happy.

✨how to reduce stress for a fish when bringing it home✨
Tending to the needs of an aquatic animal happens to be a very detailed process. While it’s common for fish to die from simple errors like the wrong pH or temperature, one of the most common causes of death in brand new fish tends to be stress.
When I sell fish at the pet store I work at, I always try to give this advice to new fish-parents:
1) Make sure you don’t start out with a stressed fish
I bet you are wondering what the heck I am saying. Well, typically pet stores will take sick fish to a back room so they can give specialized medicine to the little guys. While the ones you see out in the tanks may not seem sick, it would be good to ask the person who is selling you the fish if the tank system has any problems with ick outbreaks recently. Making sure you don’t start out with a fish that has a compromised immune system is the first step to having a fish live it’s entire life!
2) No loud noises!
This may be difficult if you are getting fish for children, but keep in mind that fish can feel vibrations through the water. Definitely with driving home with the little guy— try to avoid aggressive driving or playing the radio. Some fish seem to be extra sensitive with vibrations, for example: bettas can actually eventually learn what sound vibrations through the water stands for their names. Just like how children screaming and loud music hurts our ears, sometimes it can badly stress the fish.(keep in mind that when going home they are just in a bag, there is nothing breaking up any vibrations going through the water)
3) darkness is calming
If you have ever watched a zoo or a vet show, you may have noticed how sometimes people may put a towel over the animal’s eyes. This is actually due to the fact that with most animals the darkness is calming. When you put the fish in the tank, I suggest turning off all of the lights in the room. Even the fish tank light. If this isn’t possible, drape a blanket or towel over the tank to make it dark for the fish. It keeps them calm while they get used to the new environment.
4) acclimation is the reccomendation!
Before putting a fish in a tank, remember to float the fish bag on top of the water for at least 30 minutes.(I personally put the bag on the water and then go do other activities for about an hour) Fish-parents do this because the water in the bag is gonna be really different than the water in your tank, floating the bag at least gets the fish used to the temperature.
And just do research, purposely strive to meet the needs of your fish before you get the darling(and let your tank cycle for 48 hours before throwing a water boi in there). And dechlorinate your water PLEASE.
Feel free to add on, my other fish-parents. Or give better methods on my notes— this post is purely supposed to be helpful.
I have a five gallon tank, with one tiny female betta. Would the tank be too small for another small female betta if I were to get a friend?
Anyone have any tips on fish photography? I’m trying to take nice picture of my fish for my art class, but the fish won’t cooperate. They know my presence means food so they all swarm the glass and won’t stop moving for even a fucking second.
When I was picking out my Betta fish on Friday I was torn between two different male Betta and a lady near me told me to just get them both and buy the other one one of the cheap bowls that was on sale. I politely educated her and then took only one Betta home knowing that I had a home ready for him already. Just a reminder that Betta fish are not a low maintenance fish and definitely should not be an impulsive purchase. I made the mistake of buying a Betta fish without researching and he ended up getting so ill from the stress of moving throughout so many tanks and without having the proper care (heater, at least 2.5 Gallons of space, filter, clean water etc.). Please PLEASE do your research, fish don't deserve to just be an aesthetic in a small bowl on your desk, they deserve to thrive and be treated like a lil baby.
