Laughing Alone With Fish

Betta Fish Care - Common Myths

fishysforlife:

1. Betta fish are lazy and don’t do much.

A healthy betta is an active betta. Bettas constantly explore their surrounding and spend most of their day swimming all around their aquarium. They often respond to their owners by begging for food and wiggling their tails too. If your betta just lays around not doing much, perform the standard water tests checking the ammonia, nitrite, nitrate and pH levels. Make sure the aquarium water is warm enough for your betta. Water that is too cool will slow the cold-blooded bettas’ metabolism down making him more sluggish.


Ahahaha, yes. 
Aya happily swims all over the place in his tank and spazzes out when he sees me cus he thinks I’m gonna give him food. xD That or he’s just a show-off who knows he’s pretty.
