Betta in constant flare

[christina]

I think he is seeing his reflection in the tank. Will he adjust to it? or should I do something to minimize the reflection of the tank? If so, what should I do?

He will adjust, but u also can add a background to ur tank (if ur tank is background less)...u can put paper over the side wall's of ur tank, if possible ( I used nice scrapbook paper) or take out the obect he's flaring at (assuming that it is just decor and not actually useful).

Does your aquarium have a light? If so, turn it off and your betta will not likely see it's reflection. Like Jasper said, use paper to cover the sides. I purposely let my betta see his reflection every night for about 10 mins. It's good exercise for him :)
