I just got a new betta fish (crown tail) from Walmart and I just need to know if I've been doing a good job.
I got him from walmart about 6 days ago and he's been in his new tank for about 5 days. He's been very active in his new tank and has been eating well. He is even starting to follow my finger around, but he still acts a little nervous around me.
I've been feeding him 5 pellets of Betta Bio-Gold a day, which he's always eaten all of. His tank is also filled with Aqua Culture Betta Pro water and has a water filter as well.
The main concern I have is his head. It's darker than the rest of his body, which is a greenish-blue color. I've also noticed after I got him that one of those dangling fins underneath him is shorter that the other, so I assume he somehow got hurt before I purchased him. And lastly, he likes to hide in this little "tunnel" I somehow made when I put his plants in, so is that normal?
I would just like to know if I'm doing everything right so far and if there is anything I can do better.
