Do you have ping pong balls lying around your house? A simple ping pong ball can be the perfect toy for your curious and inquisitive betta fish because the floating balls mimic surface prey. This will help your betta fish practice its natural hunting skills within the contrived environment of a fish tank. Bettas love live food. It’s all very well having their pellets floating on the water, but it’s not much of a challenge and mealtimes can get boring. So, stimulate their natural hunting and scavenging abilities by using live foods such as daphnia and bloodworms.

That’s perfectly normal behavior for your pet and is nothing to worry about, provided that he doesn’t hang at the surface constantly. That could indicate that oxygen levels are poor in the tank, probably because your filtration system needs cleaning, and a partial water change is due.
