Well I posted a couple of weeks ago about getting a small tank for a male betta, I wanted a white one, well I went their yesterday and found the one I saw dieing .

So I got a heater etc and a small glass tank which just came with a lid. Then I was looking at the bettas and only saw two then the guy pointed out this white blue one. He is so good, vieltail, his heads a dirty white, half of his body is dark blue the other half light blue. His fins are blue and white and his pelvic fins are red. Wow what a mix of colours ! I added him to the tank yesterday, people said I could get the tank and fish on the same day. Needs serious aqauscaping ! At the mo it has white and black gravel, but wanting it to have black completely. I'll let him settle in till I do anything. He seems really healthy. Hopefully I'll get a pic soon.

Sorry for going on, I'm just excited

congrats

he should be just fine.

Sounds like a pretty new betta boy

And don't be sorry for being excited a new fishie is well worth itdon't ask about the expedition to the lfs we have planned for tomorrow

Sounds a bit like a grizzle

Good luck!

I have a problem, the waters all cloudy . I turned the filter of overnight because it was in my room and it was noisy, and when I woke up it was cloudy. I moved it downstairs next to my other tank, and seems a bit better so hopefully overnight it should be better.

What can I do to make it better ?

water change, and there is that dye, and it makes the water alittle bit more cloudy, but then clears by the next day.

Panic over water is crystal clear, filter seems to be doing its job, I will get some more stuff I want totally black gravel, and I'll add a small terracota pot.

Pictures please!

I am glad the water cleared up

big relief
