Types of Tanks to house your betta

When its comes to tank selection, people tend to get a headache. For myself, i have several tanks at home, glass and acrylic, various shapes and sizes. I ll like to share some thoughts about my personal opinion to tank selection.

After speaking to a couple of friends i had whom are also into keeping bettas, i discovered that glass tanks are still the more popular choice. Advanatges of glass tanks is that its enhances photo taking, and its scratch resistance. But they are much heavier than acrylic tanks.

On the other hand, acrylic tanks have the light as a major advantage. The ease of drilling and bending the acrylic enables tanks to comes in more different shapes and sizes.

I believe as a hobbyist factors such as budget, space and dcor plays a part in tank selections.
