Where Do Bettas Poop From? o.o

Do they break wind (water?)?

I guess he thinks the opponent will find it disgusting and will go away, hahaha!

Omg, my fish did this the other day too! I accidentally fed him to much, so I pulled out a mirror thinking the exercise would keep him from getting bloated/constipated. And lo and behold, he IMMEDIATELY started pooing! Hehe, this is a great trick to prevent your betta's bowels from getting clogged up!

Thats strange, Drax never has a second cup of coffee at home!

... Sorry was trying to make that a poop joke, couldn't, but wanted to show what I was thinking about while reading this...

Drax must poo alittle, alot, never see him do it, but the evidence is there that he must poop as soon as I turn my back on him haha.

bettas peeing? i thought thier gills act as very odd kidneys that expel all the "pee" stuff. Thats why you never go pee in the amazon river, cause theres this tiny little fish that likes to zone in on urea and attack the source ( blood rich gills)
and yay for off topic!
vancouver canada gets no snow, it makes me sad.

I once scared the poop out of my fish before. Another time I had walked in on him pooing and we both got really embarrassed. I ran out of the room so fast!
