Comments: Nice fish, males are grumpy with each other. If you are told to add table salt to your bettas water dont do it. Use rock or aquarium salt, table salt kills bettas and all other fish as a matter of fact. Don't "buy betta in a vase" displays, the betta will NOT eat the roots and will starve.If you have such a display try my different recomended foods untill you find one he realy likes.
