After about a week of watching my fish swim in this small area, I decided I wanted him to have more room. So he could swim farther. So I bought a 10 gallon fish tank and some accessories to spruce up the tank. First I washed everything out really good with soapy water, the tank and the accessories. I also bought an air pump so the fish would have more air and the water wouldn’t get stale. Once I got the fish tank and his new trimmings washed well, I filled the tank up with water and put the trimmings in place as I wanted them. I let the water sit for a while so I wouldn’t shock the fish when I first put him in the water. I actually waited about 24 hours before I put my fish in his new home.
I also got a plecostomus or an algae eater for the tank. The plecostomus would eat the algae in the fish tank so I wouldn’t have to change the water as often. This type of fish can usually be found stuck to the side of the fish tank.
Once I put my betta fish in his beautiful new home, he swam away looking at all the new surroundings he had. A sunken treasure chest at the bottom of the tank, some pretty rocks and glass stones and a huge rock I bought that had a hole in the middle of it so the fish could swim in and out of it.
After my fish got use to his new place, I decided I better feed him. I bought some betta fish food which was freezed-dried blood worms. I would only feed him a couple of times a day so the water wouldn’t get cloudy to fast and the fish wouldn’t get sick.
I ended up having to put something on the back of the fish tank because the fish could see his reflection. I bought the pretty fishy looking background design they had at the pet store but this didn’t work. He could still see himself. It was Christmas time so I ended up putting some Christmas wrapping paper with Santa on it on the back of the outside of the tank. Problem solved. My betta fish ended up living about 3 years.
