My betta fish had a similar problem...he had a fungal infection in and around his mouth. It looked jelly like and white. I added some antibiotic drops that the pet store gave to me. They said this happens quite a bit, unfortunately he got worse and he died. This happened to two of my bettas. I cleaned their tanks weekly and used distilled water(as I was instructed). This is my experience..I never got an answer. The fungus closed their mouth opening so they were unable to eat. Mine too loved to eat, and ate vigorously. _______________________________________________________________________

My certainly does all the time but mostly at night before i feed him. Betta fish are quite adept jumpers.

Even a piece of breatheable cloth secured with a rubber band works just fine.
