Seachem Betta Basics is an all-in-one conditioner formulated for the small, often unfiltered tanks and bowls bettas are typically kept in. In a single product it removes chlorine and chloramine, detoxifies ammonia, and buffers the water to a stable, betta-friendly pH of 7.0 — the three things that most often go wrong in a small betta setup, handled at once.
Good to Know: Betta Basics is intentionally less concentrated than Prime, which is what makes it easy to dose accurately in tiny volumes without overshooting. That same dilution means it's best suited to small tanks — for larger aquariums, dedicated buffers and conditioners are more economical. It also gently supports live plants, so it works nicely in a small planted betta jar.
Think of it as a fuss-free, single-bottle solution for the betta keeper who wants clean, properly buffered water without juggling several separate products.
Dosing Guidelines: In a planted betta tank, add 1 capful (5 mL) per 1.25 quarts of water; in a betta-only bowl with no plants, use 1 capful per gallon. Use with each water change, and for best results 2–3 times per week to keep pH steady. For quantifiable ammonia spikes, reach for Prime instead.
