The best advice I can give you is this....invest in a book or two and read
them.
Do not let the water get cloudy and feed your fish at the very min. once a
day. Max gave ya good advice... a little alot is better than alot at once.
Allowing the water to get dirty will cause stress to your fish and open the
door for problems your probably not ready to handle such as disease. Nasty
water is a bettas worst enemy. If you have your betta in any type of betta
bareracks or bowl,
I recommend a water change every 3 days.
