So I've seen a few people's doing this and thought my old man fish deserve a story. So here is Hermes story 2 or 3 years ago I got aphrodite ( my first betta. I promise this is important) and her tank was missing a piece so we called the place that I gotten the tank from and they sent a new one . So I had two tanks and was so happy as I had a reason to go to the pet store again. So after a full week of letting the tank do its thing I went to the store with the best betta care and looked at everyone no one particularly took my interest until I saw a sad black and orange fish with a huge bubble nest . His cup was ice cold due to the bettas being by the door so I was praying that's what his problem was so when I got him and took him home I made sure to get is cup to warm up which he did perk up a small bit but wasn't quite a betta happy. A few hours go by as he was accumulating in his new 3 gallon tank and he already looked and acted 10× better and was basically trying to jump out of the cup and explore the new place he was going to call home. After I released him I went down to have dinner which was an hour or two and he had already made a bubble nest it wasn't a great big one or anything but I figured he was just that happy and relaxed about his new home. He to this day still tries to make bubble nest the size of his tank or even more. I like to joke about how awesome of a father he would be but I know good and well I wouldn't handle 100 baby bettas and mr helicopter + the whole courting thing with any lady bettas .
