Awesome Toy, But Beware of Sharp Edges!, August 4, 2010

My little crowntail Jack has been in love with his Betta Log "house" for 5 months now. It fit perfectly in the corner of his 5 gallon tank. It was his FAVORITE place to hang out! Just a few days ago I noticed he had torn a hole in his fin. Immediately I went to do the nylon test on all his little toys, plants, and hideaways. (This involves dragging a pair of nylons over the items. Anything it snags on can also tear a betta fin. All his toys pass this test before I put them in) His log snagged all over the place, horribly! I have no doubt it is what tore his fin.

It looks like after a few months, his log started to wear away. I noticed color loss to reveal the grey beneath, and didn't worry too much. I just washed his toy and stuck it back in. I wish I had checked with nylon again! Make sure to check and make sure there are no sharp edges every few weeks. Unfortunately I had no luck sanding down the sharp spots.

Jack loved his toy while it lasted, and I would... Read more

This is great for Bettas. All mine love the log and enjoy swimming in it and resting in it. The only bad thing about the log is that it chips off easily. I've had mine since June and it's already had it's share of wear and tare. It's a great product though, one that I'd recommend, but for the price and how badly it lasts, not something for the long haul.

Ramses loves his floating log, June 22, 2010

My blue super delta tail Ramses is a tail biter. I have been trying to pinpoint the cause of his tailbiting. I recently bought the floating betta log with hopes that it was boredom that was causing my baby to bite his fins (it was not). I have to admit it took Ramses awhile to figure out that his log is for his amusement and to give him a place to feel safe and secure. He loves to swim through his log. Bettas love to swim through things. I recently caught him resting in his log with part of his caudal fin sticking out which was too cute. I should note that I have Ramses in a large Kritter Keeper which is approximately 3 gallons, perfect for his floating log. To keep it from moving all over the place, his log is wedged between some fake plants which he has easy access to swim in and out of. I have heard that the paint chips off the log after awhile so I am going to watch mine very carefully and suggest to people to do the same to be safe than sorry. Overall I think it was well worth...
