Question
Dear Chris,
Will it be better if I pour some filtered boiled water into the tank and pour the rest of the water normal filtered water?

Answer
Hi Samuel;

Don't change the temperature of your betta's water by adding hot water unless you have a way to keep it warm. It's only going to drop again to be what it was in there before. Temperature fluctuations stress him out.

There is no benefit to using boiled water in your betta's tank. Just use tap water that is the same temperature as his old dirty water with water conditioner.
