Care of the Betta Fish and the AQUABLOCK
Caring for your Betta fish & its tank can be as easy as 1, 2, 3… 1. Feeding We recommend feeding your Betta fish one pellet per day. Going away for a long weekend we suggest feeding your Betta fish 3x’s in a 24 hour period, and of course, as soon as possible upon returning. Betta fish can usually go 5 days without food with no problems. 2. Additives You've heard the expression “an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure”. With the addition of additives to your AQUABLOCK aquarium you can prevent or slow down the progress of disease organisms. 3. Changing the water in your fish tanks You should change the water once a month. Your AQUABLOCK contains decorative sand art which is sealed at the bottom of your tank, making changing your water easy. Prior to changing the water in your AQUABLOCK, you should leave two pints of non chlorinated water in the same room for about 24 hours, therefore bringing the two to reach the same temperature (approximately 70-80 degrees) leaving the water bottle open allows the new water to age. If you intend to add additives to the water of your fish tank or aquarium, this should be done to the new water as it is aging. Mixing or shaking the treated water before introducing it to the AQUABLOCK would be ideal. To change the water, simply remove the plastic cap, and slowly pour out approximately 3/4 of the water from the AQUABLOCK, leaving approximately 2 inches for the Betta to swim in. Be careful not to pour out the Betta while removing the water. When replacing the water be sure to leave approximately 1 inch of space at the top of the AQUABLOCK allowing your Betta to swim to the top for air. Replace the cap to your small aquarium. Relax and Enjoy your AQUABLOCK. |
