No, there is nothing you can do. He is doomed to live a boring life.

I have a Betta that lives in a vase with a plant growing out the top. I remember to feed him about once or twice a month. This is the laziest mofo I've ever seen. He buries himself in the roots of the plant so he doesn't have to swim. I actually thought he was dead a couple times but he was just resting I guess.

Get a big fish tank and put some Bass and Bluegill and other random pandish in there. They are way more fun than tropical fish.

Wanna bet? I beat my Betta and prod him with toothpicks to cut his scales so they harden and form callouses. It also improves his response time to attacks.

Having and having had a bunch of fish, a few things you should know.

1. betta like to live in confined areas. A tank larger than 2.5 galons seems to shorten their life span.

2. 2 Betta together will kill at lest one of them. Try it at the pet store. The will even jump out of the tank to get at the other if possible!

3. Read about fish on aquariumfish.net

4. If you really want fish at minimum you'll need a 10 gallon tank with filter that hangs off the back. Only put in enough gravel to cover the bottom. A heater is a very good investment too.

5. Bettas don't workout in a large tank - they just don't. Read about the rice fields in regards to bettas.

6. Though shalt change 15% of the water once a week. Thou shalt use a dechlorinater in the new water. Thou shalt vacuum the gravel in the tank. Thou shalt change filters when needed. Thou shalt not take the fish out of thy tank to pet them. Thou's fish will be spotted from time to time watching TV.

My grandma has a Betta. it's one of those things where the fish swims around in the roots of a plant that grows above it. Since she got alzheimers she talks to it constantly like it's a person. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]
