ofcourse you need a heater water temp is about 15F lower than room temp … say your house is about 70F the water would be in the upper 50′s or lower 60′s…unless your house is about 85F to 90F the fish would be ok but im sure you wouldnt want your house that hot so i recomend getting a heater

I have seen many Betta fish in offices, businesses and in homes and they are in small bowls. I just got one today and named it Jumper because it jumped out. Lucky I was woken from my nap by someone yelling “the fish got out!” lol

Bettas DO NOT …
Bettas DO NOT belong in bowls. No fish belong in a cheap fish bowl. Get yourself a 5 or 10 gallon heated and filtered tank! Also keep the tank well planted.

You should …
You should occasionly put a mirror in front of your betta fish for a few minutes. This allows them to “flare up” which is their form of stimulation.
1. It really …
1. It really depends on if you want to breed it or not…If you don’t want to breed it then it just lays there.
2. The new borns can be together in the same tank for over 2-4months….but when they get aggressive separate the males…
3. 200-400+
4.You don’t need to distinguish the males from the female..only when they get mature and aggressive…
82 is only good …
82 is only good for breeding them. 75 is about average for them as they are suptropical fish
HAHA. dumbass. if …
HAHA. dumbass. if you want to keep you tank around 70-72 degrees, please know that you are stressing out your betta. bettas like tempetures between 70-82 degrees. when the water is colder, bettas become lazy and stay at the bottom more. cold tempeture is hard on bettas. myne is at 79 degrees right now and he is happily swimming around. if my water ever becomes colder than 75 i turn on the heater

It’s not really fighting it’s more like deciding who’s dominant… Which you said.. but it’s not really “fighting” >.>

female do fight over dominence, but they dont fight ot kill. i have 3 in a 10 gallon tank with a divider for one male, 2 of the female bettas fight once in a while, they do fight and can get beaten up but normaly they dont fight to kill
