lol i dont have a name for this little jumping betta yet, but thats what i htink of when i see him fling himself out of the water landing several inches away!

i have started feeding baby bettas less now that they are onlder, like 2 times daily now. and now whenever i open the top one of the 3 bettas flings itself 1in apove the water, and about 4 inches away! and i keep rewarding him for it, so im hopeing he wont forget this trick! it is super cool!

Bettas are known to jump. Some people have trained thier bettas to jump and get food from them when they hold it above the water. It is definitly super cool

That's a nice trick, but remember to put the lid on, after you feed him.
