      <content:encoded><![CDATA[My daughter has a betta for a pet and I know that they need to be isolated from another betta, including females. But I was wondering whether I could add a shrimp to the tank. The tank is about 3 gallons (I wouldn&#039;t use any of those awful tiny betta bowls or 1 gallon betta tanks) and there is room for the shrimp to hide, at least I would think so since there is a soft cave that has a thin spot where the betta can&#039;t reach the shrimp.]]></content:encoded>

      <content:encoded><![CDATA[So for the past month I have setup my new aquarium. Its been quite a learning experience! <br />
<br />
One of the fish in there is a female veiltail betta. 4 weeks ago, her stomach area turned white and became swollen. I looked up online what could be causing this, and found &quot;Dropsy&quot;, with the only cure being &quot;certain death&quot;.<br />
<br />
Naturally at this point I flipped out a bit, however after that day I have been very closely monitoring her, and within 24 hours the swelling went down. She never stopped her...<br />

      <content:encoded><![CDATA[This is a picture of my first betta, who was incorrectly labeled in a local fish store as a half moon betta. I think I bought him in Petland Discounts - I can&#039;t be sure. I bought a 1.5-2 gallon tank (at most) because I think that they could survive in such small amounts of water and thrive. After all, aren&#039;t bettas used to puddles and enjoy betta bowls? What a fallacy. Fortunately he was able to live for well over a year, almost two, because I took great care of him and changed his water...<br />

      <content:encoded><![CDATA[I think that bettas are beautiful and have one of the most distinctive and interesting personalities of freshwater fish. Like cichlids, they are on the more responsive side and can learn from experience. While they are all beautiful fish, I was wondering about opinions on which betta you felt was most beautiful.]]></content:encoded>

      <content:encoded><![CDATA[I bought a red Betta male for my then under 2 year old grand daughter who was visiting us one summer. The fish was left with us after the visit and we didn&#039;t think it would last long in the small bowl it was in. It&#039;s now 2.5 years later and that fish is still vigorous and thriving! At the time of purchase the fish was fully finned and brilliant red. He&#039;s grown longer finnage and his color is not as bright but there are no signs he&#039;s giving up the ghost soon. I know nothing about these fish...<br />
