Tis true. Here's my old ten gal set up on a standard computer desk. Didn't take up much space at all. I still have the tank in case I have the time (and better health) to keep a betta again.

Tis True. Here's My Old Ten Gal Set Up On A Standard Computer Desk. Didn't Take Up Much Space At All.

I’m sure a great many people have said this before, both here on the tingle dot net and on other platforms, but I’ve recently had to explain this to a family member and I think it bears repeating.

There are a ton of myths in fish keeping, especially about the more popular species, like bettas. Such as “bettas don’t need much water because they live in puddles in the wild!” Which will then prompt me to have to gently explain that this is not quite true, and that when they think about puddles they’re thinking of something like this:

Im Sure A Great Many People Have Said This Before, Both Here On The Tingle Dot Net And On Other Platforms,

(A very small and ephemeral collection of water in a divot on the ground after a rain, usually evaporated after a few hours, and how would a fish even get in there?)

Instead of something like this:

Im Sure A Great Many People Have Said This Before, Both Here On The Tingle Dot Net And On Other Platforms,

(An example of a wild beta habitat: shallow ponds, marshes, slow moving streams and flood plains. These might be described affectionately as a “puddle” in that these habitats may only be a foot or two deep, but they generally cover a wide and vegetation-heavy area.)

Anyway if I see one more of those plastic 0.5 gallon “tanks” I am going to scream.
