My betta does this all the time. He did it a few hours after I got him.... Went to check on him and he was laying sideways in the grass, I thought for sure he was dead. Started grumbling at myself because I've never killed a betta in a matter of hours and I was mad, went and grabbed the cup to put him back in to take him back to the store, stuck my hand in there and he TOOK OFF. Scared the crap out of me! Lol he does it around noon every day!
my bettas all have plants to chill in i like the leaf hammock and plants that go over the surface
That is so cool! Where did you get it?
So funny you posted this! Today I freaked out when I saw 2 of my Khulis laying on their sides half way under the limestone. I thought the worse! I went to pick up the rock and completely ruined their beauty sleep! They are so funny. One fell asleep at the top of this little ship in my tank with its head hanging off, but of course moved when I went to take a pic. I don't get it. They have perfectly good caves, sand and plants but they choose the weirdest places.

That's outstanding, now I gotta get me a few of those. I'll turn a section of my aquarium into a lounge...
I have plants, DW & rocks but these two choose to lay behind the heater! Guess they ll move if it gets hot?!?!
They re Golden Zebras. Just got them last week & they re pretty young. Right now they re maybe 1 1/2 inches & will be 4 inches as adults. Don t plan to breed them but then that ll be their call on that one .
