STRESS! (and TOO much attention). I keep my bettas for up to 3 years by NOT cleaning the water except every 6 months. I add water to keep the tank full (regular tap water with conditioner from the fish store). When mine did that, I put him behind a book and left him A LONE, except for feedings, for a week. Problem solved!
