Bettas and shrimp share one need: water that moves without pulling them along. The air-driven sponge filters here trap debris without sucking up fish or shrimp, and the Electric Sponge Filter, at 70 GPH, is the pick if your tank holds 10 gallons or more and you would rather not run an air pump. For catching, the Shrimp Net and the 4-inch Telescopic net use soft nylon mesh.
Fry need a corner of their own. The Acrylic Fish Breeding Box floats in the main tank with slim slots in its floor, and Floating Feeding Rings hold flakes in one spot so food stays out of the filter. A betta in a 5 to 10 gallon tank pairs with the 50 W heater, set anywhere from 59 to 95 °F on its outside display. Hatch live food with the Brine Shrimp Net Kit.
All 15 picks for betta, fry and shrimp tanks come from the Pawfly collection.
Questions about Pawfly betta and shrimp tank
Will a Pawfly sponge filter pull your shrimp into it?
No. An air-driven sponge filter draws water slowly through foam, and the foam traps debris without taking in shrimp or fry. Pick the size by your gallons, from 1 to 3 on the smallest Nano Bio filter up to 60 on the largest Mini option.
Is the Pawfly 50 W heater right for your betta tank?
For a tank of 5 to 10 gallons, yes. You set the temperature from 59 to 95 °F on an outside digital display, the sensors hold it within 1 °F, and the heater shuts off at 96 °F. A 5.9 ft cable and two suction cups let you place it along the back glass.
How do you feed your betta with Pawfly feeding rings?
Fix the ring to the glass with its suction cup and drop floating food inside. The round ring is 2.25 in across inside, the square one 3.8 in. Food stays in one spot, so leftovers are easy to scoop out. Sinking pellets fall straight through, so use floating food only.
