why does my betta fish keep swimming around reely fast up and down the tank

why does my betta fish keep swimming around reely fast up and down the tank2007-11-24 23:43:56Answers:

He is really sick, stressed out, and/or is frightened of something. When they start doing that, they often jump try to jump out of the tank. (At least that's my experience with them.) If I were you, I'd put him in a clean tank with a screen over it.


it's probaly about to die
he's just really stressed.
When I had beta fish they always did that too. I think they are just neurotic.
maybe oxygen level is low>>>>>>>>>>>
Are his gills and fins extended as well? He might be really agressive right now and think that you're a rival. Mine does that a lot.
that is really not normal./. check ph level of the water
hey, the fish is him/herself. it can do what it wants to do.
bored. or scared
Mine does that too. It is just the way they are. Is it near a mirror or anything that it can see it's reflection. If so it is probably wanting to fight!
It is really rather simple.

If he has his gills extended as well he is exhibiting a behavior commonly known as "flaring."

Flaring is the way betta fish "show off or show up other males."
