SO I got a betta this past week, along with 6 otos. First day he didn't care about them (exploring new home), next 2-3 days he would flare chase otos occasionally, after that he didn't mind them anymore.. Well today I've caught him nibbling on a piece of very waterlogged zucchini with the otos.. several times! I thought these guys were carnivors, not omnivores.. so wtf is this betta boy doing sharing veggies with the tiny suckermouths? Anyone else seen behavior like this?
He takes betta food fine and I feed him 5 pellets 2x a day, he has an acceptable belly(not huge, not sunken). Going to give him first frozen treat this weekend (bloodworms).
Sorry no photo evidence, when the camera came out he started swimming near the mid-upper tank instead of bottom by the veggie, will try to ninja a shot of it later if I can.
