How to get started

-
Place the tank on a level surface away from windows/vents.
-
Rinse and add gravel; place plants to create hiding/resting spots.
-
Fill with RO/DI water and add remineralizer as directed.
-
Add Aquavitro Seed per label.
-
Turn on filter and light; let it run a few hours or overnight.
-
Float the betta cup/bag 15–20 minutes, then gently release fish.
The Nitrogen Cycle
-
Fish waste and food become ammonia (toxic).
-
Bacteria convert ammonia to nitrite (toxic).
-
Other bacteria convert nitrite to nitrate (less toxic).
-
You remove nitrate with water changes and filtration
For the first 4–6 weeks:
-
Test ammonia, nitrite, nitrate 1–2 times per week.
-
Do not add additional fish if ammonia or nitrite is above 0.25 ppm.
-
Once ammonia and nitrite stay at 0 and only nitrate shows, the tank is cycled.
-
Easy Betta Care Tips
-
Feed 2–4 pellets once or twice a day.
-
Change 30–40% of the water weekly with remineralized RO/DI. (Only clean the filter once a month)
-
Run the light 6–8 hours per day, off at night.
-
No tankmates needed; this kit is designed for a single betta.
