    • Boring

      I have thought this book would be about how to raise a betta fish and keep it healthy but the majority of the book is about the different types of aquariums you can buy and the different types of filtration systems that are on the market and how to impregnate a betta. It does mention that you can put Molly's or guppies in with your Betta fish. Most of this book was written for someone in grade school because it wasn't anything but I didn't already know. Oh my gosh everyone knows how to set up an aquarium with filtration and lights and plants. But if you're 12 years old and you need to read a book well go for it. The only thing that I found to be unusual is that it said to use distilled water instead of spring water and I don't really agree with that.
