Does anyone remember this topic where my fish committed suicide by jumping out of the bowl?
http://www.createblog.com/forums/index.php...177&hl=fish Well, I have a new fish and he seems to be happier. His name is Sebastian and he's very pretty and red. These are the silly things he does sometimes. :D Sometimes he likes to blow bubbles. He lines the rim of the bowl with these little bubbles, it's a very interesting habit he has. Sometimes I watch him do it, it's pretty funny.  When it's time to feed him, he floats in the middle of his bowl. I put the food in (he eats betta flakes) and he comes right up to eat it. You can hear it if you're paying attention, it's adorable.  Quite possibly the weirdest thing is when he goes diving in the rocks at the bottom. You hear them crashing around, but he's not like bashing his head against them or anything. Just shifting them around. He'll usually make a few really quick passes around the bowl and then go back to the rocks.  Anyway, I'm not a fish person but I realize these are not necessarily abnormal things for a fish to do. I'm just still pretty amused by them anyway. :P |

If it's a labyrinth fish, like a Siamese fighting fish, they make bubble nests as a breeding habit (regardless of whether or not they have a partner).

Yup, that's why. Bettas are labyrinth fishes, so he can also breathe out of water. Their natural habitat is often poorly oxygenated, so they have a suprabranchial labyrinth organ that allows - oooh look, a rock!
