help!!! stupid question but i need to know!

Is it a bunch of little bubbles together? Is it his "bubble nest"? Male bettas blow bubble nests, they house the females eggs. Do you have any test strips that you can test with?

Aqua safe is perfectly fine.

Thats' exactly what I thought

He should be fine! Just make sure the new water is the same temperature and about the same pH balance of his old water so he adjusts to the water change very easily and without a problem!

I thought she was saying the fish wasn't even in the tank...she was waiting to hear from us to make sure it was safe...I don't know anything about fish, though...so, I wasn't able to answer, but, I'm learning, so, I'm reading the thread to see what answers she gets.

Yeah, I figured as much...but, the reason I said anything was because they were suggesting the bubbles were from the fish...and, you were saying the bubbles were in there before the fish was, right?

[Flatcoatluver]

right.

When you fill up the tank using the tap, you'll get the little bubbles. It's perfectly normal and they'll eventually go away. Remember never to use soap, always use a chlorine remover like Aqua Safe, keep the water as close to the temperature he's used to as possible and your fishie should live to be a ripe old age. It sounds like you're taking good care of him.

Duh now that you mention it, the bubbles could have been from soap left over on the sides of the bowl.

Yes you're never supposed to use soap to wash out fish bowls/tanks because it can leave a residue behind on the glass that gets into the water.
