I think my betta Kenny is a little crazy. I read up on the Fluval Spec, so I knew some bettas don't like the flow at the top, and some get stuck on the intake. Thus I've been keeping an eye out for any problems.
The little goofball goes to the top and seems to be willfully playing in the outflow. I have it adjusted so he doesn't have to be in it, but he's going in anyway. Then I saw him by the intake and thought he was stuck, but when I opened the top he just swam away. Now that I've started watching, I've seen him go to it purposely many times, hang out there for a bit, then easily swim off of it.
I think I just have a strange betta, as he's the most active little guy I've ever seen, too. He never seems to stop swimming. Cartman, who lives upstairs in a Fluval Edge, is a lot more sedate. He swims around some, but he avoids the moving water and hangs out in his plant/hidey area a lot. Kenny has me thrown for a loop, but at least I guess he's happy!
