New here and got a problem!

Hello all!

I'll get right down to it, had a Betta for about 4 months. love the tank and all the fish with the Betta as my pride and joy

Recently he has been sitting on the bottom of the tank hidden under a plant. doesnt really swim about any more unless i come with food and then hes back their...or at the very lop left back of my tank. am a little worried and not sure what would cause this.

or am i just being silly?

Hello and many thanks!

When mine did that he was constipated (lol) but yours probably isnt. Maybe he needs more attention? I'm not really sure. Maybe someone more "professional" Could possibly help... :l

bettas like to sit at the bottom of the tank but im no expert my fish likes rolling marbles all day long
