i blief tat almost 100% fish shop also got sel aquarium salt.. jus go to the shop and say wan buy salt will do..
if the fish already kena velvet better buy med.. salt is more like prevention rather than medication..
suggestion: try buy coppersafe to cure ur fish velvet.. is around rm15-20 like that only.. cant recall..

because The temperature will gradually adjust to be the same temperature as in the bowl and the chlorine will evaporate. biggrin.gif

taking care betta is simple. no need big tank (but if you want also can)
change half the water every week or two depends how dirty it can be
make sure u read bout diseases so incase anything happen to yr betta u can recognised it and cure it ealier

if want to prevent parasite get aquarium salt.

ovrall nothing much no need filter or heater

hey bro yewlin, still going strong eh?

btw guys and girls, just a reminder not to abuse the salt.

the salt is good for killing bacteria and such but if you overuse it, you might develop salt resistant bacteria strain and that will make everyone suffer more.

so, use salt sparingly and only when necessary.

Nak tumpang tanya, someone in the office was nice enough to give me this bowl with the plant.

Was wondering if I can put a normal fighting fish in there as well and have it and the plant survive?

my betta fell into the sink hole when i was cleaning his tank... he fell inside ( it wasnt any filter ) thought he cant make it, so i keep the water running bit by bit. Unfortunately i cant see him anymore. when i almost gave up, suddenly saw his tail peeking through and i caught him by the tail... PHEW ! i was really scared, never clean it near the sink without the filter anymore... He was without water for almost 5 min... real tough fish smile.gif

oh guys, wanna know do you always put aquarium salt everytime you change the water ? or occasionally ?
