As for my bettas, everytime when I switched on my kitchen orange light and go near to them my bettas will get very excited and kept opening and closing their mouths against the side of the tank. They will only do that to me, when my mum or house guests go near them they will just swim to and fro only.

I reckon my bettas recognised me as the person who feed them food. so cute. You guys got this experience?
