Hi everyone,
I've had my betta for a year and eight months, so he's probably at least a year and 10 months old, maybe 2 years. He's not sick but I've been noticing some things lately.
He used to follow my finger really well. He would follow it over to the food. Now, he doesn't do that as well. I can't get his attention with my finger sometimes, and he doesn't follow it well either. His eyes are not cloudy or anything. It's almost like he can't see the food. I have to be really careful when I feed him so he'll get the food. But when he does see it, he almost jumps up out of the water a little in his excitement to get it! If he was sick, he wouldn't do that. He still does swim up to the top almost immediately when I take the lid off to feed him, but then it seems like he has trouble seeing the food.
He also hasn't made bubble nests in almost 4 months. He used to constantly have one started. I just wonder if he's getting old?
