Yes I'd imagine so though I've not tried it, just use filtered, or boiled or water left to rest a day to remove the chlorine, though some water does have a lot of heavy metals that are not good for any fish. My experience has been they can live quite happily in many types of tanks from as small as a cup of water, they tend to be aggressive to many other fish in the same tank though and do need to be fed so keep in mind this will "muck up" the tank. Change at least 10% up to 25% some say no more than 50% but I think that's a bit drastic - so change a bit of the water in the tank each week to keep it clean.

What is the oldest Betta fish on record?

To the best of my knowledge no one keep those kind of records. Bettas are mature at 12 months, past their prime at 2 years old and ancient fish at 4 if they live that long. I have a Betta fish that is now over 5 years old because I change the water once a week with 2 gallons of purified water and I add about 20 drops of Splendid Betta Complete Water Conditioner to it. Using the water conditioner is a MUST to ensure that your Betta fish will live a very long life. I also feed my Betta fish 4 pellets of Hikari Betta Bio Gold once a day in the morning and 1 pellet at around 7pm.

What Can kill a betta fish other than a betta fish?

Well, if you love your Betta fish, then it should live by itself. But if you add another Betta to your current Betta fish's tank, then they will start a fight because Betta Fish are Siamese fighting fish and if one Betta is in contact of another Betta, the possible reason would be a fight between them two.


What plants do betta fish live in?

Betta fish live in rice paddies. The misconception that the Betta live in a small amount of water it's whole life has spread wide. A Betta actually only lives in small pools of water during the dry season when it is forced to by receding water levels. Also like many other fish a Betta in captivity would enjoy the protection of almost any aquatic plant.
