Only good for plants... |
Being the novice I was, when I was about 12 I "rescued" 2 bettas from a Pets Mart and put them both into separate, cheap, tiny little novelty tanks, and that's how they lived for about a year and a half until I bought my third one and put him into a 5 gallon tank. I instantly noticed the difference!
My 3rd Betta was flying all over the place, he was noticeably happier, responded faster (in a non-aggressive way) when I'd come near the tank, and he lived for a little more than 3 and a half years! My other two barely made it to 2 years. They were depressed, uninterested, slow to respond...everything you don't want your Betta to be. And once I moved them into larger 3 gallon tanks each, they perked up like none other!
Betta's need to be in 3-10 gallon tanks by themselves (5 or larger and you might be able to add compatible fish, though I wasn't willing to risk it). In the wild, they live in rice paddies which are thousands of gallons of swimming space and naturally aerated and filtered, and only live in "small puddles" for about 2 or 3 months (at most) out of the year during the dry season.
What's more, while Wild bettas may be able to take smaller conditions longer and survive better, the fancy bettas we see in the stores today are not nearly as durable or hardy and need more stimulation and space.
This "tank" has no filtration, has little space for the Betta, and isn't much better than the initial cup they come in. I'd use it for water plants; less cruel and easier to tend to, and it would look just as pretty!
For a Betta...no. It's just cruel to confine a fish, no matter how small, into that sort of an environment for extended periods of time. |

love these little wall mount bowls! |
|
so i bought one a while ago for my female betta, set it up, and fell in love. i love it! i have 2 cats, so it was important to me to find something easy to use and easy to keep away from kitties. i loved it so much, i just ordered 2 more for 2 other betta fish. the cats love to watch them, but still cant get to them! theyre really easy to mount (it took me 3 mins with my power drill to get a screw in the wall, and hang it) and theyre easily removed for cleaning. havent had any leaking problems with it either. i would definitely recommend this to anybody who has kids or cats (even any other pets) and wants a betta fish. its the perfect safe solution! |
