It’s the second time he does this. I cleaned up the first time and didn’t give it much thought. 4 days later he did it again and bigger. How do I handle/manage this? Is there anything I should do?

definitely a bubble nest, dont remove it he’ll just make another one. theyll be gone when you do water changes
U can’t do anything about it, they will always make more when they get removed. That’s what male bettas do
It is just a bubble nest! Male bettas do that when they are happy and ready to mate, it means you are taking good care of him! You can destroy them but he’ll just make another one, i usually just leave them until I do my water changes and it gets destroyed when I do that but he makes another one in a day or so.
He’s beautiful!~ the only thing I’d watch, it might just be the pic- but the top of his head looks like he’s got maybe recovering damage with the white lines… could be from the hardscape you’ve got, could be a trick of the light. I’d watch him just to be safe. Happy, healthy behavior outside of that😁
Mhm it looks like maybe he got hit by someone (a previous tank mate) or maybe scratched it on something, but the fact that he’s building such a strong nest tells me he’s happy n healthy. It’s only a problem if you start to see him being affected by it or you start to see white fuzzy stuff growing out of it.
