I just got one off eBay, it was the cheapest place I could find them (about $20-$25). I’m going to have to buy another one since I dropped and broke mine before I got to hang it =( don’t worry the fish wasn’t in the bowl at the time! I was also thinking about putting an aquatic frog in the bowl since they are so smal.

“We top it off every fortnight?” Oh my dear god. A “tank” that small should be completely changed every two days at most because of the harmful buildup of ammonia caused by the fish’s waste. The “puddles by the roadside” bit is a myth that has condemned many bettas to terrible lives in tiny jars simply because they are slow moving and have the ability to breathe air from the surface. They live in rice paddies which are actually large, though shallow, bodies of water that is denitrified by plants and beneficial bacteria. And though they might end up in a mud puddle due to some misfortune it’s definitely not their ideal habitat. Bettas are wonderful pets with great personalities, and with clean water, controlled daily feedings, and a source of heat they become more vibrant and interactive. It’s a terrible pity these fish are treated like nonliving decorations when in reality they’re one of the most intelligent and rewarding fish to own when treated with respect.

Very cool- I think a cluster of maybe 6 or 7 of these on a wall or in a hallway would look very unique. Would be a great conversation piece for Doctor and Dentist offices.

I was given one of these for Christmas, they are fantastic!
It houses one male fighting fish, he seems really comfortable as these type of fish often live in puddles by the road side in Asia!
The tank has been set up since Christmas, and the water remains clear. We have pebbles in the bottom, and haven’t as yet had to clean the tank out. It’s the best thing out and looks so effective on the wall. It does lose a bit of water through evaporation, we top it up every fortnight with filtered water.
