Question
I just got a blue half moon male Betta and when we saw him at the pet store he looked really hyper and now he just looks really calm. He is also not eating well. I'm really worried :( help!!!

Answer
Hi Taylor

I found your question in our question pool. I apologize if there has been a long delay in answering your question.

You need to give your new Betta time to settle in his new home. Once he gets used to you and his new surroundings, he will come to life. Keep him on a regular schedule as far as feeding, water changes etc and he should be more active in a week or two.

Hope this helps, good luck!
