Something Fishy
Aquarium Advice Apprentice
My betta started blowing bubbles the other day, but he didn't seem to know what he was doing. He was just putting them here and there and then staring at them funny. Today I came home from work and he had a big frothy pile of bubbles in one corner of the bowl. Is this a bubble nest or is there more to it? Does he have more practicing to do? Sounds stupid, but I was pretty proud of him!!
He doesn't seem unhappy, but he's much slower and more lethargic than he was in the bigger filtered tank. He was in there for 3 weeks and didn't blow any bubbles. He has been in the new bowl, about a gallon and a half bowl maybe, for a few days and he made a bubble "thing".
Everyone here says bubbles mean he's healthy and happy, so I guess he must be, but he sure seems less active or something now. He has no current to deal with and doesn't flit around as much so maybe he likes moving slower and less often? Like a cow?
