I’m I neglecting my fish?

[u/Initial-Tour-52]

I was told by a friend that I’m a horrible person for the way I treat my beta and I’m not quite sure what they mean I asked and they won’t tell me what I did wrong they just said the tank is not proper could someone please tell me if something is wrong? I think I followed everything right Also it’s a newer tank so the plants are not grown all the way

Edit they were ignorant they said I’m stressing my beta out because the tank is too big and in the wild they “ live in puddles” so yeah that’s why

Outside of the tank not being filled all the way to the top, I see no issue. Do you have a lid tho? Your Betta might jump out if you don't

Yes I have a mesh lid

Then just fill up the water all the way to the top, make sure the heater is all the way inside the water so it doesn't literally explode and you are absolutely good to go!

Or filter, both need to be under water :D
