So I have a crowntail betta named Bruce that I'm very much attached to. Lately he's been acting a bit weird. Usually he's 100% active and swimming about but for a couple of weeks now I notice he likes to sit at the bottom. Now I know this is usually a sign of sickness but when he sees me or I come to the bowl he suddenly gets very excited and begins to swim normally. He'll follow my finger or follow whichever side of his tank I'll be on and he won't even seem sick.
He isn't pale or discolored at all and he's eating normally. The only thing I notice a little differently is that for the last few weeks his bubbles have been scattered all over the surface rather than a concentrated bubble nest by his leaf hammock like usually. I haven't noticed any sign of fin rot although I'm not sure what it'd look like on a crowntail. I'll provide a picture and perhaps one of you guys will be able to see if anything is wrong.
Just some general info: he lives in a 2 1/2 gal tank that's constantly around 80 degrees and has a baffled "waterfall" filter that doesn't cause any stressful comfort. He's been living in this environment for about 4 months now just fine.
