Betta Bowl Plus Water Conditioner Neutralizes Chlorine and Ammonia for Betta Fish Tanks - 4 Ounces

I have a three gallon bowl for my betta. I change 25% of his water weekly and use a baster to clean out the gravel and conditioner the water with the recommend dose of this (5ml per 1 gallon) it has an easy lid to measure with. The way I do it that is easiest is that I use purified water to fill up the bowl to begin with and add a full cap full of this and add the small heater for my betta and wait a few hours to allow it to heat up and the conditioner to permeate before transfering the betta to the bowl (this is when you first get the fish). Then I add 5ml of this to a 1 gallon purified water jug, shake it up, and then let it sit. I keep it in the same room as his bowl to keep it at the same temperature. Once I have removed 25% of the water (weekly) with a cup and cleaned the gravel I simply pour the water from the jug in until it is two inches from the top of the bowl to replenish the water. If you wish not to spend money on purified water just save a jug and fish it with tap water and add the same amount of conditioner and follow the same process and you will have the water right there for you ready to go. When I change the water I also add a small amount of API stress zyme to help with the harmful bacteria and reduce the stress on my fish. This conditioner seems to work very well and my betta is happy, healthy, and active. Important to note! Amazon has clearly listened to reviewers and taken care of the shipping issue. The bottle is now shipped in a sealed plastic bag that says "ready to ship" and you therefore do not need to worry about ti exploding or leaking over your other items. I have ordered three of these and none have leaked in shipping (or ever) so you can purchase with two day shipping with confidence. ALSO IMPORTANT! It says in the instructions this is for use on smaller bowls/tanks, I would not use this in anymore than a 3 gallon bowl/tank as it is pricey and in a small bottle and you will go through it fast making it a waste of money. An equally as good alternative is stress coat by API (or Seachem Prime but I find stress coat works better with bettas for their slime coat). Both are available here on amazon and are in large bottles at a much more reasonable cost. Whichever conditioner you choose I recommend using it with API stress zyme (also available here on amazon) as stress zyme kills off harmful making a healthy and stress free environment for your betta.

I don't really know what this does but it was recommended and seems to do well if keeping your betta fish alive is the goal. I have a small 1.5 gallon plastic fish tank that my betta fish lived in for over a year. I would change out the water and beads monthly (some time adding more water in between). Every time I added tap water, I mixed in this solution with it following the instructions. I wish there was a smaller pipette or something to use with smaller amounts of water because the cap on top of this has line markings for much higher volumes of water. Look, I didn't run a control experiment, but adding this to my water refills kept my betta fish alive for more than a year which I hear is pretty good for novice fish keepers. This is probably necessary if you're using tap water.

I think it worked fine,, kept the water really cleN( didn’t see signs of my fish being sick.

Works great, only need a small amount every water change. Have not had any problems with it. Very easy to add and they fish seems to like it.

The conditioner seems to work well - I have been using it for months and Marvin (my betta fish) seems to be happy with the water. I do wish it was a bigger container though... I do monthly water changes and top off the top layer of water every week or so and this is not enough liquid to keep up with it. It's gone in like two months - maybe two and a half if you are good at stretching it. Overall, it seems good; to get Marvin acclimated to the new water, I just poured it in with the existing water he had - that worked well.

Great price and very good for my fish kept water clean for weeks

Incredible my fish is so happy akira can see his reflection I love this product

Works well for my Betta fish tank

Works great for my beta fish, never had a problem. If I may add regular tank conditioner is very similar to the beta stuff so if for some reason you find yourself in a pinch regular water conditioner works just was good!

Very good size conditioner and it's a good and the fast shipping

Great product, my fish are very happy with their conditioned water. This product works better then my previous brand of water conditioner.

I had to put a film of saran rap in cap to prevent the liquid from evaporating. Lost a whole bottle after opening for one use. When shaking the bottle, liquid also leaked out. Make sure you put a barrier in the lid!
