's the best water for your betta fish?

Let's find the answer here...


The Best Water For Your Betta Fish

First of all, let's dispel a myth about
the best water for your Betta fish – it
is NOT using bottled water! Many people,
in an effort to give their fish the best
possible environment will rush out and
buy the most expensive bottled waters
on the market. But the truth is, not
only do most bottled waters not contain
the essential minerals your fish needs,
they may also contain some harmful
chemicals. Likewise, you should never
use distilled water or water that has
been "purified" in any way – including
through a carbon filter. This water won't
have the minerals that your Betta needs.

The actual best water for your Betta fish
is just plain old tap water! (By the way,
if you've been using bottled water in the
past, don't worry. It won't kill your fish,
but unless your local tap water is so bad
that you don't drink it either, switch back
to tap water ASAP. And if you have to used
bottled water, make it spring water, and
follow the steps below, to make sure that
you remove any harmful chemicals before
adding it to your Betta's tank.) Of course,
because most of the water we drink is
chemically treated, there are a few steps
to follow to make the water safe for your
Betta fish – but don't worry! Follow these
simple instructions and it will be a breeze:

1. Find out if your local water supply is
treated with a chemical called chloramines.
(If so, then you'll have to buy a special
treatment for it. It's called AmQuel and
is readily available at most pet stores.)

2. Plain tap water right from the tap will
kill your fish, because of the chlorine
(chloramines), so it has to be treated
first. The product to do this that's also
best for your Betta fish is called "stress
coat" and you'll find it at your local pet
store too.

3. Once you've treated the water according
to package directions, it needs to "age"
which will allow all of the chemicals and
gasses to evaporate, and also for the pH
in the water to normalize. To do this,
just let it sit in an open container for
about a week.
