pookiepoo asked:


I have a beta fish and I am currently treating it for fin and tail rot with some Betafix.

What is the proper way to change it’s water?

How much food should it be having per day /
perweek?

How long can it go without food?

IAre there treats it could have?

WIll it do any tricks?

I havent had enough experience with fish and this fish belongs to my daughter. I would like to know more about them. Like if they have moods or do they have a special way to sleep. Things of that sort.

Any facts and/or opinions are welcome.Thanks!

And can beta fish change genders? cause mine has a really swollen belly and i don’t know if that is just because he is old, If he is sick or if he is changing genders, because he also has a white spot on his stommach like the females do and he has stripes, and i heard that only females have stripes. please help.
I don’t feed mine more than fuor times a week and I clean the bowl every two or three weeks and It is about two years old and the lady that had him before me didn’t want him so she like never cleaned his bowl and fed him like one or two times a week. those are tough little bugers.
