Betta Water Conditioner

A betta-specific conditioner that dechlorinates and adds a slime-coat boost. Made for the fish most often kept in small, unfiltered water.

Our take

Bettas are so often sold in tiny cups and bowls that a lot of care advice around them is wrong, but the water still needs treating. This conditioner dechlorinates tap water and adds aloe and a synthetic slime coat to soothe a fish frequently kept in stressful conditions. Use it on every water change. The bigger favour you can do a betta, though, is a heated, filtered tank of at least a few gallons, not the bowl on the shelf. This makes the water safe; the tank makes the life.
