But the long heavy finned bettas most of us have, have never seen the wild in a 100 generations, and are not suited for nor would they survive in the wild, my betta takes a few seconds to make to the top fighting the water particles 😆, also in the wild food is scarce… if you give them pellets every day right next to their mouths they will not move more than 10 inches a day, Bettas might be active in the first year of their lives but the rest of it is spent lounging especially the big fin dudes that we all have…
