He was a great fish, but vain. He was always flaring at nothing. He definitely wasn't flaring at other bettas cuz he was always faced the wrong way. He wouldn't listen when I told him to stop either. Unfotunately I only have one betta now. My little girl betta, Shimmer!

So if he isn't eating, that maybe why, that is what was wrong with my two specail bettas. =) Please never make it flare, =( that really hurts the fish and causes tearing... I always scold Carmichael for Flaring. And he is so smart, he always listens and stops. =) Haven't had a problem with Daemon flaring, I think he is too sweet natured too flare. =) If they can see each other they will flare, and attack the side of the tank, which causes nose bleeding and injures... =( Buy seperat tanks, or make sure they aren't able to see each other.
