    Just one word of advise, though I'm not meaning to sound horrid, but maybe you should save up plenty of money before you get another betta? I know they're addicting!
    This is the last one for a while . I'll have plenty of tank cleaning to keep me busy!

    I know how that is! I cleaned Hinge's last night, and Cadbury got messy with his food and he's getting a cleaning after supper tonight.

    Not yet. Nameless is still lacking a name. Nothing seems to fit. I'll rack my brain tonight and tomorrow and hopefully decide on a name. Don't count on it, though.

    Bettas also live in puddles in China so thats why they are in smal cups although that is not nice thats why. Thats also why they can live in such shallow water.

    bettas don't come from China and they don't "live" in puddles. When it is dry and the water is very low they survive in the puddles, but they certainly don't thrive. It is not ok to make a betta live in a small cup. Why do you think they don't have the muscle to live with a filter and they are very suseptable to fungal infections, because they literally waste away in the cups. My girls live in 2.5 gallons and my boy lives in a 5. When you put them in a big tank you can watch the muscle grow. A small tank can't cycle anyway so they suffer in chlorine, ammonia, nitrites, and nitrates.

    Just had to throw this in. (Please don't take this as a bashing, that's not what it's meant to be.)

    1. Bettas live in rice paddies, not puddles.
    2. They live in Thailand, not China.
    3. The only time they have to "live" in small amounts of water is during the dry season. During the rest of the year, they have plenty of swimming space.

    Good luck with Ariel!

    Would Melafix work? I think Neptune needs some, too. I'm not sure, but he may have fin rot. But his fins are damaged badly..so would it work?
