Oh, i can't find any good betta at my place here.. wonder if i can buy it from you guys here and send it to me huh? Wonder will it survive? I live in sibu, sarawak. By the way, how to choose a good one huh?

If so, i suppose it has been feeding on live food.. Juz feed it with pellet and it will eventually start eating pellets.. Remember to remove the uneater food

u can ask yewlin or spirit of demon or u can juz go over to betta4u.com and choose your betta

Meaning can be deliver without any harm to the little fish huh?! Will it die on the way?

The chances for mortality is there and they will be stressed over the long and rough journey.. But a healthy one should reach your doorstep hopefully still swimming

still swimming What are the percentage of this?? It's not advisable to buy online then..

I really like some of the fish i saw.. oh boy..

hey don't let what i said put u down.. some breeders import bettas from overseas as well

Don't worry, purchasing live stock is very normal here. Go ahead and buy what u like and don wait , the more u wait the more u think once u buy it ur dream come true !

Let me know one thing... how they going to pack it for delivery? Oh, i saw some video clip on youtube, betta fish can put together huh?

don worry la.. after starving many days he sure eat ! but 3 days din eat... really abit abnormal. . just try not to disturb him 1st.. let him relax.. and put some ketapang leaves or betta relax. if still not eat in the nex 2 days.. u post again photo let us see see got what symptoms

anyway look what i found here.... SUCKER ahha i found it interesting to suck all the " sh*t ". Mayb some of u all think or see b4 hehe

Okie thanks.. Actually, every time i give him a pellet he'll take a bite and spit it out.. repeating for few times until the entire pellet crash into pieces and drop to bottom..

By the way, how often do you change your betta's water? Let say it's a 1 feet X 0.5 feet tank with around 5 inches water level. Every time change water, will add in little bit of salt with 100% water replaced. Or the salt is not compulsory? The water i use is old water, at least 1~2 days old. If not i'll use filtered water lol.. Is all these correct way, pls advise..

Just passing by here and saw this. I had a similar betta before, it didn't want to eat dry food and pellet. I try feeding it frozen blood worm, and it eat like starve for 1 week. Frozen blood worm can be found at most of the aquarium shop in KL.
Betta not so choosy about water quality, it got labyrinth and can breath from the air. And the way you change water is correct, salt is not needed.

Thanks. Yesterday went to the same shop and found out most of the halfmoon are gone.. that shop is doing wholesale one so is lucky for me to be able to buy one, yet it's really depress due to newly arrive and bad water treatment. Just hope will get better after few days.

There is this guy called ling selling betta in the bsm forum who is from either sabah or sarawak.

ya quite few people in BSM is from sarawak and they r spawning too.. do check out that forum men !

Thanks guys..

it is not a big problem to send a fish to sarawak(fishes hav been sending from malaysia to thailand, and den to US, so compare to the journey, sarawak is not far)... by airpak service is juz nice... they handle the fish well... b4 u sent the fish.. u nid to condition them well.. then, starve them for a day b4 sending... n "double pack it" to avoid licking.... then put them in the cooler box.. and sent it by courier service lo..

Erm guys I just bought a betta 2 days ago. Not really nice tail but bought it for its dark purple color. But for the tank, anything small (e.g. 1.5L mineral water bottle type of size) with some soft hiding will do right? Donno anything cos haven't touch one since primary school till now.
