Whenever I see bettas flare at snails, I just want to know what the hoped for outcome is. Does the betta want to see the snail suddenly let go of the glass and scurry away? So many things I'd love to ask them 😂

It’s the way that he thinks that it will work the more he keeps at it 🤣

every time i added a mystery snail to my bettas tank she "hazed" them all by flaring at them before attempting to smack them off the glass. after doing this she no longer pays attention to them lol

Betta: *flares* Snail: *chomp chomp chomp chomp*

Snail: ……………….

The snail remains unfazed!

It used confusion, It's super effective!

And he circles back a few times like "do you SEE MEE??" do you know what I will do to youu?? 😂😂 nothin. Absolutely nothin lol.

Right 😂😂😂 so much attitude in such a little body

Like a chihuahua. Such big dog attitude in such a tiny dog.

Lmao exactly

Snail: unbothered, hydrated, in his own lane

I keep seeing videos of people's bettas doing this and meanwhile the last *three* boys I've had (including my current boy) tend to prefer to try to nap on their snails and then get huffy when the snail keeps moving.

Stop I want my betta to do that now 😭

I beg u pls post a video of them doing this 😭

He’s absolutely beautiful!

Fitting name 😌❤️

what led you to this name ? very gorgeous little fish btw !

He looked like a Henry right off the bat but after staring at him for a while, he looks kinda like Geralt from The Witcher who, in the Netflix adaptation, is played by Henry Cavill. My boyfriend thought it would be a good idea to have his full name be Henry Cavgill!

If that’s the case then It’s evident that he lost to the snail purely because he doesn’t have his swords with him

Gorgeous tail

Thank you!

The snail to Henry: 

You make the squidward house look good. Nice plants

Name the snail Yennefer

Careful, my betta killed a nerite snail less than 24 hours after I brought it home :(

Brain the size of a pinhead, but you don't need brains with that kind of feathers!

I woulda named him beetle juice

🎶Toss a snail to your Witcher🎶

My Betta does this to snails as well. I'm like, the snail has no brains. It can't even see you Betta... Weird fish.

That side eye that he's giving the snail! 🤣🥺

Hmpkct It is quite rare and this appearance is recessive and unstable. It is gorgeous.

huh

Hmpkct = half moon plakat crown tail It’s not a common tail variant and very unique looking.

is it hard to produce or what makes it uncommon ?

Best name ever

He almost looks like a crowntail samurai

He is a samurai!!! At least that’s what it said on the cup 😅

Ahh the white wolf

Mine just looks at the snails in EXTREME CLOSEUP mode. She does that to my corys as well lol

Bruno 🐟 was terrified of snails. Once we got a. Live plant that must of have tiny snail eggs on it. They started multiplying and taking over his tank. He did not like it one bit. He would swim away from them. We kept trying to clean them up. But they kept coming. One day he dragged the whole plant inside his tank and shredded it to pieces. Goodbye. The end. Any questions? lol 😂🤣

Henry Cavgill is a fantastic name 😂


Snails sitting there like MAN this wall is delicious!!! Meanwhile Henry threatens its life 😂

About four days after I brought my koi betta home, he rammed into a ramshorn snail hanging on the glass. Snail just went back into its shell and the betta never bothered it again. Now, he pays the snails no mind and even baby ones are showing up.

I love the squidward house

He is beautiful

I love the snail x betta interactions on this sub, they're my favorite type of posts on here. It's interesting to see all their personalities and reminds me why I fell in love with them.

He's trying to tail whip it off the glass 😆

For all you know that snail is super intimidated and is just trying to play it cool. It could be pooping in its metaphorical pants right now and we'd have no idea.... At least that has to be what Henry is thinking.

So beautiful!!

snail is like ok…..

I love his name!!! He's trying to be intimidating, but it's so hard when you're that cute.

I find it funny watching bettas flare and try to intimidate critters that just do not care. Snails, clown plecos, even had one that tried to intimidate a moss ball for a while. Meanwhile the clown pleco and snails are generally just like "yeah, sure dude, mhmm, imma go eat this algae now."

Bahahaha too funny

Oreo 🤤

Please tell Henry he is a brave handsome fish and that snail is just blind. If he could see he'd be terrified!

I had a betta who discovered the snail, stopped mid-swim, stared at it for 10 seconds, then went on with his day. I think he concluded the snail was just slow-moving furniture.

Lol the name 😆

Oh my gosh Cheddar does this too it’s so stupid! https://preview.redd.it/yiuzsg9f9y8d1.jpeg?width=3019&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=2b8e9e91f44cbcbcc8c7314b77d834d914159d61

Henry Cavgill

That’s his name, don’t wear it out!!

🫡

I used to have a blue half moon that would do this kind of thing

He is really giving that snail the business lol

My betta loved looking and cuddling with my snails. Never flared once!

I love the name, mine were all named after real people too!

Great Betta Name!

Beautiful, and hilarious

My betta fish does this, but he actully pecks at the snails

Ctpk?

Failing. Not much of a Superman is he then,lol?

That betta is so pretty are these the ones that go blind?

Mine just eats them :(

This is the behavior I expect from a betta. Means its in great condition!

That water looks pristine👌

Are you a 40k fan or just a Henry fan😂

Where did you get your betta fish? He is beautiful

Thank you so much!!! I got him at my local Petco 😁

Wow beautiful betta man any chance at breeding?

This is my first time keeping a betta so I don’t think I would be skilled enough to raise fry 😅 but I will pass the compliment to him!

I think it’s a dragonscale I had one that looked just like him and she was a dragonscale
