It can be difficult to tell if a betta fish is dead or just sleeping because they often rest at the bottom of the tank. Look for signs of movement or breathing, such as gill movement or fin twitching, to determine if your betta fish is alive. If you are still unsure, gently nudge the fish or tap on the tank to see if it reacts.

What games can you play with your betta?

Playing games with fish if very diffucult. The best thing to do with your betta is to put your finger on the fish bowl and move it around to see if your betta will follow it. If she does, that means she is hungry. Feed her. Not hungry? Then just talk to your fish, though I must warn you, they might not be very sympathetic. BUBBLES ROCK!!!!
