If you are on facebook, I am part of a couple of groups that have some very knowledgeable betta owners (and breeders) in them. I didn't see in the rules if we are allowed to post other websites on here, so if you are interested, PM me.

Basic betta needs are that they need at least a 2.5 gallon tank with regular water changes. They are tropical fish and need water at least 78-80 degrees, so you will want a small heater. New Life Spectrum is a very good food, as are frozen bloodworms (freeze dried can cause bloat) once or twice a week. I prefer Golden Pearls for mine-they don't expand as much as most food, and are all in all very good. If you put live plants and a filter in your tank, the water quality will be even better! 2.5s can be hard to maintain a cycle, but a small filter is beneficial keeping a protein film off of the top of the water. The more live plants, the better!

Fishy is adorable!
