Getting my first Betta!

[Roxyluvsme13]

thanks so much! Its helped me alot. I would rather get a real plant than a plastic one. Rocks on the bottom are ok?
As for water,i'll go out and buy spring water. Its not too expensive for a case of it.
When i go to look at them,i'm going to make sure the one i pick looks healthy.
Do they sell bloodworms at petsmart?

Aquarium safe rocks, yes. Okay. I'm pretty sure they have them in a freezer on the side. Atleast mine does.

Instead of spring water you could get a bottle of chlor-out dechlorinator. A few drops for each gallon of tap water will make it safe. The bottle lasts a long time. Most bettas won't eat flake food, so pellets are best.
