depends, are there other fish? it could be stress or other reasons, and the betta could actually bite itself too, mine did tht before, it was awkward.

There is no other fish in the tank.Only one male betta with some fake plants and rocks.Btw,the plants are planted long time ago inside the tank.

Are they plastic or silk? Plastic plants can easily rip a betta delicate finnage.

Plastic.I had planted the plastic plants long time ago but fin biting never happened before. Just right after my trips. ==

It could be that he ripped his fin on a plant and it turned into finrot maybe. Can you post a picture?

Im sure that it wasn't fin rot but fin biting.Im pretty sure about that because fin rotting and fin biting are different.Dont hv time to post a picture.Sorry bout that.
