Talking Wow! What a difference!

You all probably don't care, but I just thought I'd share. Yesterday I went to petco and bought a 2 gallon and put Volcome ( My betta from walmart that blew a bubble nest ) and put him in it. He is so much happier now! He used to be in a good sized bowl, but he was still un happy and never moved, and now he is constantly swimming like my other one that is in a 2.5 I can't believe the change though! He went from never swimming to constantly swimming! Have any of you ever done this? Moved a betta in to a bigger container and he seemed happier and moved more?

Oh ya! My first Betta was in a 1/4 gallon bowl, after 2 weeks, I made the discovery that he needed more space, and put him into 1 gallon. He was so happy! And even now, he has more space, he is very perky. He loves to strut his stuff for people! He is a real show off!

Awww how cute! I feel bad for all those bettas in tiny cups where they can't show off their beautiful colors and personalities!

My betta has been put into an assortment of different sized housing units. When I first got him I put him in a tiny glass bowl, then he was re-located and put into a glass vase,then he was re-located into a 1 gallon tank and finally he is in a 10 gallon tank.
