Benefits of Enrichment for Bettas:
Behavioral enrichment is crucial for the well-being of captive animals. By providing mental and physical stimulation that encourages species-appropriate behaviors, we can significantly improve their quality of life. For Bettas, this can be achieved by:
- Enhancing the Environment: Introducing items like the Betta Tunnel adds complexity and interest to their surroundings.
- Providing Stimulation: Offering opportunities for exploration and interaction challenges their minds and bodies.
- Increased Activity: Enrichment often leads to increased swimming and overall activity levels.
- Expression of Natural Behaviors: Allows Bettas to engage in behaviors they would exhibit in their natural habitat.
Instructions for Use:
Attach the Betta Tunnel to the inside of your Betta's habitat approximately one inch below the water surface. This positioning allows your fish to comfortably rest on top of the tunnel as well as swim through it. For increased enrichment, consider using multiple tunnels and rearranging their position occasionally to provide novelty and encourage further exploration.
