Got him around a month to a month in a half ago. He was so tiny when I bought him and he is still growing my slowly. He has been in a 5 gallon tank for about a week now. I have slowly moved him into my 10 gallon with a divider. He is showing a little color, Water temps stays between 78-81 degrees Fahrenheit. He swam around a lot before the switch. Now all he does is hide in his cave and plant and only comes out when food is out or just for a second. His diet consists of blood worms and mysis but mostly mysis with one or two blood worms a week. Could someone tell me if that's normal, or should I do something. I'm not new to bettas but I am new to baby bettas. Also if you can tell if he is male or female let me know.
I will be adding more pics as he comes out of hiding lol. Thanks in advanced. Just found this website loving it already.
My baby betta hid to when he went into his new tank, he just needs time, if he's eating then he's coming up for air too. He'll be okay. Food wise I don't know but someone else will help, my guy was okay to eat small pellet food.
