i dont have a filter, i usually just scoop out the water, what should i doHow to do water change without disturbing bettas nest?Use a turkey baster. No Joke. It will get the stuff off the bottom with out bothering your fish. Its the same idea as using a gravel vac but a much smaller scale. Just make its only used for your fish, you wouldn't want to poison him with something or vise versa. Cleaning out the whole bowl is very stressful for them.How to do water change without disturbing bettas nest?i think you do not have to change the water if it is not that much dirty

and if it is too much dirty just remove 1/3 of the water and replace some fresh water without touching the nest

if not don't worry about it -- he will gladly make you another one.



if you dont' have a filter its probably best if you clean out the whole bowl and start clean every week. he will make more nests for the first couple of years. he won't get mad or anything if you clean his bowl out.
