“The Truth About Betta Fish Care (What Most People Get Wrong)

If you’ve ever been told a betta fish can live in a bowl… you’ve been misled.
I see this all the time — small tanks, no heater, no filter — and then people wonder why their betta isn’t doing well.
The truth is, bettas aren’t hard to care for… they’re just often set up wrong from the start.
A proper setup includes:
At least a 5 gallon tank
A heater
A filter
Stable, clean water
I put together a quick video explaining what actually works and what I look for when improving a betta tank.
If you need help setting up or fixing your tank, I’m always happy to help 😊
