My psychotic betta is at it again!
The two tanks are perpendicular to each other. One betta is fine with that, but the other one is driving himself (and me!) crazy. He just does not like seeing the other one. I put a background on the side of the tank (it still looks like the mirrior effect to us in the pic) and the bright blue in it just drove him crazy. He flared and attacked the glass and ended up splitting his tail a little bit because he was going ballistic.
I took the background out, moved the tanks apart a little, and ended up putting a paper towel over the front of the tank too. I really don't want to leave the tanks like this. I want to move them back where they were. They are basically in the same position, just spread out on the counter more, but it's getting in the way some.
In place of the blue background, I put a newspaper clipping of the stock tables. This isn't a bright object, so he's a bit calmer now. Maybe he'll read them and his one-trillionth of a brain cell will grow smarter!
Is there anything I can put on the tank, like a background, that he can't see out to the other tank but I can see in?
