Salutations!
Hello :) i am very new to keeping fish. I kept them when I was younger, but i never really had any success. Most of them died within two weeks. Recently I was bought a male Betta fish by a friend. I named him Eugene. I have minimal knowledge on how to care for him, but he seems happy enough. if anyone could point me to the page where I can ask a TON of questions I would really appreciate it. I need some info

Welcome to the AC! As emmanueljb pointed out the ebook is a great place to start. Also, here is a link with some information about Bettas:
http://www.aquaticcommunity.com/betta/splendens.php
I assume that's the type you have.
Best of luck

Welcome to the forum. Read up on cycling your tank. It will make it easier and allow your fish to live a longer healthier life. Good luck!

thank you all :) I posted some more questions in the "Betta" thread place. I hope that's the right place to put them. Presently I cannot download the e-book because I don't own the computer I am using. Could I find the information elsewhere?

Welcome to the forum
If you take your time to do the research FIRST, you can successfully set-up and keep ANY type of aquarium with ease.
