Tips to Increasing the Lifespan of Your Beta Fish

In this article from my own research, I have the basic tips for keeping your Beta fish alive as long as you can. It is important that each fish Beta owner read and recognize these needs. The tips in this article are essential to your BETTA long life. And they all do play an important role in improving their lives.

Believe me, when you BETTA, is everywhere you to do your own research on any aspect Beta fish life. Make sure you tips, because they will help.

1. BETTA fish should always be kept if the tank size is small, otherwise you do and your Beta fish is claustrophobic. Whatever happens, Beta male fish should always be kept in several aquariums. Beta male fish battle for territory and can sometimes result in death if the tank is too small.

2. Make sure that your fish are in a relaxed environment. Do not let the water current is too strong because it can stress from their small fins. Their fins are very sensitive because of their size.

3. Just as humans have a Beta or other form of entertainment in their lives (so they are not depressed) you must provide them with some silk plants to hide behind. They would also enjoy some beautiful ornaments especially the sparkling are (those who enjoy a lot). Ornaments help BETTA so that only when they are not always so bored.

4. Beta's are coming from countries such as China, Thailand and Vietnam, meaning that they had a good amount of darkness. So you want to make sure that your fish a good amount of darkness and even too much sunlight, the Beta to stress that is certainly not good for their long life.

5. A major factor in increasing your fish life is to maintain the correct temperature of the water (78 degrees is perfect). I advise you to filter and a thermometer and check frequently. This is very important, because BETTA's lived in ponds and streams, it would be difficult for them to switch temperature so keep the law.

6. Although this may sound stupid and easy believe me when I say this, but there have been accidents in the BETTA jumps from the tank. So do not forget to include your tank. Try it and let some air supply so they do not die because they also use oxygen (duh). You can do this by punching holes or leaving a crack at the top.

Now this is not a direct offense, but there are some incidents of the type of water you fill your tank up with. Some people have reported that their fish are dying because their tank filled with tap water. So after doing some of my own research I discovered that instead of using tap water that it can be healthier and more (better for life) if you use real spring or any other filtered water and a few drops Aquari-Sol.

BETTA fish are very good fish and have a lifespan of up to 2-3 years. There is a lot of information on the Internet (Google) and with the proper research you can BETTA an expert.
