Bettas don't need filters. Because the betta likes to live in still water, and the filter will cause the water in the tank to flow too fast, so that the betta has been in a state of tension, can not rest. Over time, their mental state will be bad. If you want to install a filter, you'd better change a big fish tank and adjust the filter to the minimum so that the fighting fish can't feel the existence of the current. In this way, it can be filtered without affecting the normal life of the fighting fish.

1. does the betta tank need a filter

? The betta does not need a filter. Because fighting fish like to live in soft water with weak acidity, there are some rotten things in the fish tank that more truly restore the water quality of nature. However, the decay in the tank can only be a small amount, if the amount is large, it still needs to be cleaned up in time, otherwise it will pollute the water quality, leading to poor growth of fighting fish.

Secondly, fighting fish originally live in lakes, swamps, rice fields and other environments, so they like still water. Filtration can cause the water to flow too fast, making them highly stressed. Over time, they become stunted.

If you want to filter the betta, you can put a few snails or change the water frequently. The filter does not need to be installed.

2. Can I put decorations in the fish tank? It is not recommended to put decorations in

the fish tank. First of all, most of the decorations on the market are plastic, which will pollute the water quality if they are put in the fish tank for a long time. And hard ornaments may scratch the body of the betta fish and cause infection. If you want to decorate, you can put some normal river sand in the fish tank, or you can raise some decorative aquatic plants, such as hornwort, pepper grass, centipede grass, etc. These aquatic plants can also play a great role in the production of female fish.
