How To Choose A Betta Fish Tank
The most important components of a good betta fish tank are the size, filtration, and lighting. Here’s what to consider about each component:
Size
When it comes to choosing a fish tank for your betta, the bigger the fish tank the better. With that said, the minimum recommended size is 5 gallons. If you have the room and can afford it, aim for a 10-gallon tank for a single betta.
Filtration
Betta’s live in calm waters but filtration is necessary for the aquarium to promote good health. Do not use filters that produce strong currents.
Lighting
Choose an energy-efficient LED light. Betta fish do not mind lighting but try to turn off the lights at night so that the fish can have a regular day and night pattern.
