Hi, so I just bought two bettas a week ago and have them in separate tanks. The first week their water was at a less than preferred temperature, probably 70 degrees, though they were still acting cheerful.
I just got each of them a mini heater yesterday and they've been working great, each tank has reached 79 degrees. My red veiltail still seems quite happy with the new water temperature, but my crowntail has been acting strange all day. He's started just sitting at the bottom on the stones or hiding behind a plant, which is not usual for him, as he is normally swimming around the top. Also, his fins are really drooping together, instead of being fluttery like his usual crowntail self. Is he unhappy that his water is warmer? I don't understand why this would upset him.
