I have 3 crowntail male bettas and on male plakat. Their tanks are next to each other with a piece of cardboard in between. After I feed them I always remove the cardboard to allow them "sparring" time for about 30 minutes. Now, after I feed them, before I even remove the cardboard, they start flaring and posturing by their tank where they know the other betta will appear. They have learned the routine. What clever lads!

I watched an episode of Mythbusters that determined that goldfish have a memory that lasts longer than 3 seconds. It was interesting.

I saw that episode too. They had an bacterial bloom in one of the tanks, lol. I think any betta would have figured out how to get to the food much faster than the goldfish, especially if it was wiggly food.

Thinking about that episode on Mythbusters, iirc the goldfish had to learn to go through a tube to get fed.
If they did it with Bettas...
the betta would have been on the other side of the tank in the morning when the Mythbusters arrived doing a wiggle dance, waiting to be fed.
