Doedogg Banned Posts: 408 Kudos: 737 Votes: 445 Registered: 28-Jan-2004	I put one of my boys into my new 20 long which I am in the process of planting. Yesterday I changed filters to an internal one and immediately he had to go over to it, check it out and play in the current (he used to play in the current of the corner filter too). Then I got the co2 system set up and he had to go over to that and give a courtsey flair. He must really love the tank because his colors are brighter than I have ever seen and he's been strutting around like Mr Thing. What a goof. Steph I used to be Snow White, but I drifted. ~ Mae West

He'll get into the current right at the filter output and then surf as far as he can, hangs out for a little while and then do it again. I used to be Snow White, but I drifted. ~ Mae West

He swims all over the place. It is hard to believe that people think that a betta would be happy in a small bowl. He is also not shy and hangs out in the front of the tank when someone is watching him.
