I am taking a plane to Canada and I stay in Australia. I would like to bring my betta along, how do I do it safely?
There is a tried method that works like this. Use a mineral water bottle or coke bottle. Size big enough to keep the betta/s in. Fill it up to half bottle of water. Put in the betta. In this way, you can keep the betta with you to ensure its safety. You can also open the bottle regularly to air it. A few of the local breeders have tried that and recommends it. This of course is limited to a few bettas at one go…..not hundreds. back to questions 26. Are tubifex good for bettas? I heard they are sources of disease and bacterias. I do say that tubifex worms can greatly contribute to fast growth rate for betta, especially fries. But there is common agreement that they contain “bad” stuff in their bodies. It could primarily due to the food they eat……which by my guess is waste from other animals… They could very possibly be major carriers of disease and harmful bacterias. So try it at your own risk.
