If the water flow from your pool’s skimmer or filter pump is strong, Betta may occasionally get pulled toward the opening and have trouble freeing itself. To prevent this, simply place the included foam noodle (bumper) in front of the skimmer or pump entrance. This creates a soft barrier that Betta can gently bounce off, allowing it to continue cleaning without getting stuck. Please refer to the image below for a visual example.
