why does my betta go under the rocks i have under there for him... i thought he was dead this morning because she goes underneath the smooth rocks i have in his tank. one is slanted and laying on another one and he goes underneath it...

it worries me!!! i hope he's ok...he comes out and swims around and then goes back underneath

He sounds like a happy betta....

Betta's are funny that way...they like nooks and crannys.

It's amazing how my older betta will contort himself just to get in a comfortable position on top of the floating plants in his tank....

umm. could be for comfort. most bettas i have seen resting usually just stay next to the tank glass so maybe ur betta likes rocks.

I have one that sleeps on the gravel, he freaks me out every morning when I turn the tank light on.

My betta babes like to anchor themselves in the java moss with their heads lower than their tails to sleep.

Heck my fool, yes BadBoy likes to wrap himself around the top of the submersible heater in his tank to sleep:%)he is so goofy, now he has some anacharis in the tank, and a clay pot for now, and he still his heater:%) Heidi

PS it freaks me out too...
