I clean the bowl once a week. I had just cleaned it. I am not dumb. You can see that someone did it. There was a ring around the bowl . I do not keep him in the sun I have had him for a year and he has been just fine. He was fine on Friday. I am a good pet owner

Any cleaning stuff accidently sprayed in the bowl would do it. You can't rely on other people to be as careful as you would. Maybe you could leave them a note for the next fish you get and request they be careful when cleaning around the bowl. You could also put a piece of saran wrap around the top of the bowl, poke some tiny holes in it for air so it wouldn't happen again. I'd remove the saran wrap when you got in Monday morning. Or get one of those small tanks that have a lid. I don't think you should give up on the hobby, we all have fish die from time to time. Not too big of a deal, just think this time you can get a prettier one or a fancier one like a crown tail. Good luck. Sorry your fish died.
i did it...im sorry
i apologize
aww asif aww yep deffo the evil cleaners i wud tell ur boss to get the cleaners to pay for a new 1 if u got a cctv cam in ur office have a look c who it is ahh evil nasty cleaners tuts tuts omfg some ppl on ere r so stupid not u i mean thoes 2 who answerd ur question tuts
I DID IT!! IIIIIIIIIIIIIIII DID IT! THERE! ARE YOU HAPPY NOW?!! Sorry but you just spent too much time with that fish and sometimes a man needs a little attention...
uh the guy on top of me did it!!!
The cleaning people may have *UNKNOWLINGLY* sprayed some kind of cleaner or furniture polish near your fish's bowl. That would account for the "ring" in the bowl.
I can't imagine anyone doing this on purpose unless you have made a real enemy at work. Hard to believe anyone would take it out on a fish no matter how much they dislike you.
Re-think this. It really COULD have been an accident. Most people do not know how easy it is for a tiny bit of chemical to kill a fish. Bettas are very sensitive anyway.
I'm not sure I'd ever keep another pet at work.
Please don't keep fish in a bowl.
It sounds like the fish was exposed to some sort of chemical, whether in tap water or cleaning chemicals.
I wasn't inferring you are dumb or a bad pet owner i was just listing a possibility that may have been the case as far as the ammonia burns. Many people post questions on here and have no idea how to properly care for fish so i stated the basics of ammonia burns cause i did not know you or how well educated you are as to keeping fish. Didn't mean to offend you by any means. As you may realize from others posts not many people who keep fish know how to care for them. the maintenance crew at your workplace may be one of those people and accidental sprayed cleaning supplies near the Betta's bowl not knowing this could potentially kill the fish or they may have been a really cruel person with no respect for others property. Anyway you should find who was on duty last night and see if you or your boss can confront them. If it was an accident there is nothing you can do but if it was intentional than maybe some compensation can be given to you. Again i did not mean to offend you by any means and hope this may help get some resolution to your problem.
