Goldie Posted July 27, 2002 Report Share Posted July 27, 2002 Just what do you need to give a betta a comfortable, natural type enviroment??? I am thinking of a 10gallon aquarium, few plants, gravel and a small heater. A friend uses a heating pad under her tanks (not sure I can get this in New Zealand). Do I need a filter, airstone?

Caryl Posted July 27, 2002 Report Share Posted July 27, 2002 If you are planning on one betta in this set-up you would not need a filter or airstone as they are air breathers so he would go to the surface. You would need to do regular water changes though. Heat pads are available in NZ. Last time I looked they were $99 for a thing a bit bigger than a hot water bottle. We make our own. The one under our 4ft tank (which is the same size as the tank base) cost about $40. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
