Is it normal to always want to harass my beta fish?

I just got this betta fish and I love to make it really mad I always put a mirror by the tank or I just touch it and it gets really mad but I find joy out of it.

        By implying that I am empty as a fish, you also implied that they have no souls.

    If you want entertainment, throw in another beta and charge your friends admission to watch.

      You should probably tell an adult about that... it's not normal for your uncle's fish to touch you like that.

    I have two betas and sometimes I put theyr tanks by each other to watch them flair (which is not abuse) but you shouldn't touch it cause it could die. Btw people here are waaaay over reacting, its just a fish -.-

    I wouldn't call putting a mirror next to your male Betta harassment :) They are so beautiful when they flare and gill up.

    Stop harming your poor fish! Why are there so many people abusing their pets on this website? Give your pet to someone else, if you're too cruel to take care of it! Just give food to your fish and clean water, look at him and put your finger slowly on the glass, so it won't fright and will get used to you. Do not touch him, unless it's an emergency, in which you need to put him quickly on safe and clean water!!
