Wow, that's a pretty amazing story! Maybe mine isn't as unlikely as i thought!
Up until yesterday, they didn't seem to be bothered by each other. I was recently saying to myself that i had such sweet, passive bettas. In fact, they would hang out "together" all the time without flaring. However, yesterday, when i found Beau all mangeled, i noticed that he was now flaring at Edgar quite a bit.
Betta got shredded

At Petco, they're kept in horrible conditions and probably suffering from fin rot. This damage literally happened over night. I've lowered the water level and put in a different filter (in case that's what did it), and now i'm just waiting for those beautiful fins to grow back in.
