This is my first post so if it's already been answered or sounds really out of left field, I apologize. I have a young betta that I bought spontaneously as a "baby betta" and he's doing pretty well. I've had him a couple months now with no problems. He's happy, healthy, and a little brat. Today, I discovered the little brat was not eating as much food as normal, but instead strategically storing it on top of the thermometer, which is on the inside held on the wall by a suction cup, and was also storing his food all over the filter. I had a lovely mess of soggy freeze-dried bloodworms to clean up with the net which was the only way I could think of to get it out. Of course, Buddy, my betta, wouldn't quit exploring the net. I was wondering if there was something I could put in with him, perhaps a breed of small snail, that would help clean up his mess? He hasn't shown me any aggression like my last one who tragically died a nasty death last year. Buddy does show A LOT of curiosity. If I put my finger against the wall, he stares at it like a science experiment, and if I move my finger, he backs up fairly quickly. Are there any suggestions?
