no idea of the salt bro

normally i change full water ...i use tap water loh plus ketapang leave if sifu Jitticus pass me the ketapang leave. Don;t ask me why use ketapang leave yah ..coz i just do wht he said only.....

oic.
Usually where you all brought ur betta one?
I just tot of getting a budgetable one, now need to clear a bit of my moss bowl, too much moss inside liao

Salt helps to destroy some bacteria and helps create a slime coat on the fish's body that will protect it from infection and fungus.

Ketapang leaves help soften hard water and lower pH levels to make water slighly acidic which bettas love.

i got it from Jitticus also nice seller ....u got alot of moss ah...can pass to me some ah

pet shop ones all very cheap... if you want good one you can get from Jitticus or yewlin

Not alot la, but got spare lor, cause the bowl of moss is my extra moss that i put in experiment one But my moss is not in perfect condition even in my fish tank, many is skinny' moss, b'cause i didnt use any fert, didnt use any co2, co2 im only use on the 1st time only..


ya, i notice that, but i dunhav so much of budget to get a pretty one

Jits one not expensive oso... pm him la, he got cheap n nice ones oso..important is healthy

LFS sell a range of bettas - from RM2 to RM15. Mine is RM2 and he's doing excellent, I'm happy to say.

the salt is marine salt or table salt?

aiyak..me no fish to sell wor..all i get from Jitticus one

Aquarium salt...you use table salt or epsom salt and you will end up killing your betta.

how about those use in cooking one & also those which are like those sugar size one? how much for a bottle of aqua salt?

just use aqua salt. safer plus cheap. i bought one big bottle last year and am still using untill today (i have 4 aquariums, one fish bowl, one big flower pot) cost less than rm5 i think. there are more expensive types but those are concentrated and have to calculate accurately.

Fox: NO NO NO COOKING SALT OR SEA SALT OR TABLE SALT. Aquarium salt is very cheap, like RM2.50 for one big bag.

what's the difference between aqua salt and sea salt? arent they both the same that u can use for marine fishes?

my betta
http://sayasebuk.multiply.com/photos/album/10
have him in a fish bowl with some gravel and jave moss. had him for 6 months now. bought for rm1.50 at jalan pasar, pudu.

btw, is it ok to change full water and replace with tap water? i only change 50% with aquarium water from my tropical planted aquarium. afraid of too many chemical fluctations from tap water.

yeah use cooking salt....IF YOU ARE PLANNING ON COOKING YOUR BETTA coz they taste kinda bland without flavoring.

lol just kidd.

Fox: Click on the following links:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Table_salt

Basically, if you want a similar example, it is like saying that beras and pulut are the same thing.

Sayasebudak: Usually advisable that you change 25% to 50% to avoid shocking fish with the different water conditions.

Ergh... yewlin make me paiseh only. Hehe.
He get from me I get from him, lol.
Anyway we're keeping different lines.
I am keeping Tribands and salas. Yewlin has blue and MGs and also salamanders (aka salas).

Yewlin, are you doing F2 on the blue yet?
Your tubi is still with me. Oh by the way, if anyone is looking for tubifex worms, I know where to get it liao. Muahahaha. Tubi is a rare commodity now.

Jit bring his fish up the good n easier way for then new owner... he teain them up in a easy enviroment.
