It is quite interesting to learn that betta fish can become constipated just like us! This is caused by overfeeding and low nutritional diet. Constipation is very common in bettas because they will eat as much as they can if given the opportunity. Though this ailment is common it is important to make sure your betta recovers properly.

Swim bladder disorder will disrupt normal swimming behavior and could become fatal if your beta fish is not treated.
