A few weeks ago my female betta Cleo began acting weird. She was never super active, but would sort of patrol the tank, investigating an MTS here and there etc. but now she just stays near the ground in the back corner of the tank. When I get home she still comes to the front of the tank to get food, but after that just goes back to the corner. She also looks a little bloated and her colors are a little more dull than normal. I know that all these symptoms can be normal for betta fish, but I'm still sort of worried. I'm considering rearranging the tank to see if maybe she's just board, but if she really is sick I don't want to add stress. Does anyone have any suggestions?
She's in a heavily planted 10gal with 0 ammonia or nitrates, and at 78*F. There are also 6 glow light tetras (which are perky, relaxed, and doing great) and a bunch of MTS.
