We had a male betta that played dead. Dozens of times we thought he was done, only to tap the glass and see him scurry away.
He liked to float upside down. He liked to wedge himself between the filter intake and the tank so he didn’t have to swim to get water flowing over his hills. He’d just sit on the bottom on the gravel for hours.
Strange guy. When he finally died, we didn’t believe it until he started rotting. Figured he was just committed to the bit when he stopped eating.
