So a sweet little secret Santa (jread) bought Sushi a filter for Christmas in addition to his new digs. I got it all set up the other day, and it works great! It's eliminated my every-other-day water changes. That thing really sucks up the goo! Thank you, Jeremy. :D

So the funniest thing is that Sushi thinks it's a toy. He swims right at the flow, then does upside-down somersaults under the leaf of the java fern. He does it over and over. It's the funniest thing. :laugh:
 
Glad he got the filter--nice of Jread to help a fishie out. My bettas tend to spend a lot of time in new currents--it's like they are trying to figure out where it's coming from, and if they need to do anything about it. I always picture guys staring underneath the hood of a car--same expression. :)
 
That is great to hear that you now have a filter for your bowl. And it was very nice of jread to do that.
But that should help with the over all quality of Sushi's water and should keep him healthy and happy for some time.

Well thanks, everyone. :)

It wasn't easy going at first. He didn't like that his favorite plant was gone (fabric plant I replaced with java ferns), and his rocks had been changed. He wouldn't eat. :(

So I put all his old stuff back, added the filter and now he's eating again. Now he actually prefers flakes because he can chase them when the water flow pushes them across the tank. My weird little man. :D
 
I recently bought an Azoo Palm filter but haven't had a chance to use it yet. It has low flow which is good for bettas (that's why I bought it). If you are using the Azoo cartridge with the carbon in it remember that the carbon will be used up within 3-4 weeks and may start emitting some of the stuff it soaked up. I'm thinking of using filter floss and sponge in mine.

This one has a white puffy part and a black screen part, looks like an air filter you would use in your home. I don't know if that's what you're talking about, but it's two pieces "fused" together.

It works really well, it's quiet and I like the adjustable flow. :)
