Laurent seems ok. He's very "sulky" at the moment, so not much flaring. I'm hoping that's just an adjustment mood and not a sign of sickness. Time will tell. I've decided to just stay away from pet stores lol

After Edward, I found it near impossible to resist a rescue of a poor little Betta with barely enough room to turn. So of course our family has increased a lot. Edward's tank got a Makeover recently...Got him a nice piece of established Driftwood. Crappy photo of Edward, but it shows his...

Just thought I'd update seeing as how all the great advice here is what helped save Edward He made a complete recovery. I don't even know how as he was literally so close to death it was crazy. Every morning I expected to find him floating in the tank, but he was such the fighter (no pun...

Lora can you believe he did? He's as happy and healthy as ever now. Doesn't even look like the same fish. Now he happily parades around the tank flaring and showing off all the time.

Ooo very pretty!

Ok, thanks for the help :) - I'll give it a go.

Well seems I spoke too soon with regards to Edwards Whitespot problem. Well not really as his Ich is almost gone. but it seems like he's got a little bit of Fin rot, his tail seems shredded on the end tips? And they look kind of stuck together Like one big bit of cardboard - when he swims he...

Lol, my husband just got use to my new found obsession.

Thank you =) I'm so glad I stuck with it. Just a question, the Ich treatment that was actually successful is a 3 day Treatment, I have just continued daily with the smaller recommended dose. Do you think I should leave it be a few days and start treatment again? Or just keep doing daily...

Well as you know Edward had pretty much a near fatal case of Ich, in fact I don't know how the little bugger managed to pull through, but he has. I haven't fed him the past week as he has just been so poorly, but today I gave him a few bloodworms, which went down a TREAT! he was famished...

Aww she's beautiful, wow what a change.
