#Two Betta Fish One Tank #viralshorts #fishkeeping

[niamhmcguire]

when i read two betta fish one tank i just thought OH NO!!

[CeairraF]

Get them EACH a 5 gallon MINIMUM tank. Don't have them together nor don't have them where they can see each other. Use lots of plants so they can hide but make sure they are soft and not rough because the fish are fragile. Use a slow filter as they don't like pushing against fast running waters.

How are you gonna do something like this and not expect betta fans to come after you for it

[gloriapiercy]

Brb, I gotta go tell my water babies how much I love them, from their SEPARATE, ADEQUATE SIZED TANKS WITH REAL PLANTS

[rossyvizcarra]

Awww they're not killing each other 😮

[dzzy_rnn]

PUT THEM BOTH IN A BIGGER BOWL AND SEPERATE THEM PLEASEEEE AT LEAST 5 GALLONS EACH 😢
(edit) for the people who disagree I’m just stating the fact that they probably shouldn’t be in a tank together
betta fish are very protective of what is theirs which can overall lead to both the fish dying which is not good for fish keepers
I had betta fish and they tended to have a shorter lifespan in a small tiny bowl which can cause sight distortion which is not good for the fish.
I have a betta fish currently and it is living happily in it’s tank. I observed that it was better for the fish to have more roaming space and I also change up the decor and plants every once in a while. ( don’t worry about the plants they are kept in another tank) Last thing is that the amount of water can become dirty in a few days because it is such a small bowl. thanks for understanding :3

If this is animal abuse clap your hands 👏 👏

How you gonna call yourself aquascaping, and have 1 small ass, boring tank, and 2 betas TOGETHER, in it. Just because they can tolerate to be together, doesn’t mean they should.

The best use for a fish bowl is in the trash get them a tank plz. One tank for each fish. Do some research and watch some YouTubers.

I saw that this was only temporary, but PLEASE. To anyone reading this, do not put bettas together in a small space for any amount of time. Even if it’s just for a picture, never do it. It’s really irresponsible to say that “they can cohabitate” when they absolutely cannot, because even if they don’t immediately start fighting, they will be under extreme stress just being in that proximity to each other. It’s very cruel to do to them even temporarily. Sometimes it can work out in a very large tank where it’s easy to get away from each other. Never in a bowl. Any second one of them could snap and attack, and even if they don’t the level of stress that presents is dangerous to the fish. Fish are very easily affected by stress levels and it can be detrimental to their health. Just don’t do it for any reason. Especially when it’s too males. It’s traumatic for them.

Also- before getting any animal, please do research on their care and basic needs. It’s easy to make assumptions about simple things or think you have a good enough idea of what you’re doing, but doing so can prevent a mistake that could potentially harm your new pet. Some things you’re going to have to learn from experience, but the basics you should always try to know ahead of time. I am not casting judgement, I have made the mistake of assuming I knew enough beforehand myself. This is just a warning to other people.

Ok…there are a few things wrong here.
1 NEVER EVER EVER put 2 male bettas in one tank, no matter the size
2 that bowl is way too small. One sing betta needs a minimum of 5 gallons.
3 there is 0 filtration, there is not even live plants
4 the artificial plant might be sharp and could cut your bettas
5 there are bubbles on the sides of your plants witch indicates this is new water, chlorinated water and not cycled water.

[debbiesylvain]

Betta fish need at least a 5 gallon tank. Also you can NOT put TWO bettas in a tiny bowl. Betta fish need heaters and filters. FISH ABUSE

[beetroot]

Ok, you may be a beginner, correct me if I'm wrong, just a few tips,
1: you should get them separate tanks
2: the tanks should be 2.5 - 5 gallons each
3: you should have filters in both and depending on where you live, heaters
4 : temp should be 75 - 85°F

Again not trying to be rude, hope this helps :)

[SoSkibidi]

Them betas are too beautiful to be in a small tank like that atleast get them each a minimum of 5 gallons and they may start fighting for territory since it's the small and one plant

[tiyeidk]

Not my anxiety going 📈 from seeing 2 males there💀

[rilynnmiller]

Please please move them to a bigger tank at least 5 gallons you can get at almost any petstore I beg of you.

[Fckraine]

PLEASE separate them and get them 5 gallon tanks with a heater and filter and different substrate

[SAIVSS]

Hate how people don't get called out as abusers just because the victim is fish.

[FruityPebble_]

Male bettas WILL fight to death, but female bettas won’t but sometimes they will so, just keep them in different tanks. Bettas also need five gallon tanks or more. Bettas can survive in a smaller tank but they won’t be happy. Bettas can also outgrow their tank, (or just mine did) I HAD a betta in a three gallon bc it was a hospital tank and it was on sale and he was basically dead, but now he is in a ten gallon. I also had a betta in a five gallon but when he got to big I HAD to put him in a ten gallon (before he passed 😔) and bettas also need a filter and heater. I have another betta in a 5 gallon, with all the stuff he needs and I NEVER see algae on the walls and he has a lot of plants so he can hide. That’s how you keep a betta happy. Hope this helps!

[claycarr]

They have nowhere to hide.Give them somewhere to hide and a bigger tank
