Tonight before WC was:
HR PH 7.9
Ammonia 0+ / just a touch
Nitrite 1.0
Nitrate 5.0

Did 75% WC and gravel vac. Retested Nitrite and it was back to 0.

The cave pic was posted a few days ago, just go up a few posts. No new pics lately, I've been trying to catch him when he rides in the current from the deflector but haven't been successful yet. Everytime I approach the tank he swims to the front and under the little door wanting to be fed. I thought Bettas didn't each much? This guy is a hog.

bettas are notorious beggars and overeaters. just dont give in to his feed me dance. they are prone to constipation and bloating. just be aware they will eat a LOT more than they need.
im going to go look for the cave pic. cant believe i missed it. ive been watching this.
cheers!
