Betta current

[patola_l]

Just attached a quick video to get some opinions on whether or not the current looks too strong for my betta. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Ok I coudn't tell what was what in that video, but if you need the baffle the current from an HOB here's a handy trick:
Filter Currents: A Betta's Worst Nightmare

What current? I don't see anything that would scare me away from a betta. I've got a very happy betta living in a 40B with an AC110 (500gph). If he gets tired, he just takes a nap on a floating plant.

It all depends on the Betta for if it's too strong. If your Betta is being tossed around or 'hiding' from the current, block it.

My Bettas, Allie and Patriot, both boys with that heavy finnage, love the current and will swim through it for fun. Some bettas are weird about it.

I would say that's totally okay for a heavily finned betta. Nice job!
