you probably shouldn't have guppies in with a betta [assuming they are fancy guppies with tails n such?] but you can scoop out the water with a cup, or you can do a full change. when we had our betta in a smaller bowl we did a full water change, but now we keep him in a 5 gallon and we do...

it could be that he is shedding his skin a little, mine have done that from time to time. erratic swimming though is not good, make sure that he is getting enough to eat and that there is nothing that he could snag his leg or arm on, i've had mine break and damage limbs before and it has had...

exactly. i don't care if other people eat fish [as long as it is not rare fish] but i simply do not enjoy eating it. sometimes i will eat fish sticks, but not if i can help it. who knows whats in those anyway, they are probably just fish flavoured.

hey guys thanks for your concern, i think my little sister [whose post this was] overreacted a little. her boy looked a little bloated to me so in went a mashed pea and here i am 24 hours later looking at a normal swimming happy non-constipated betta. thanks again, lol.

the bump isn't red white or pink, its black.

Hi this is jesssa's sister...My betta is swimming really weird, like leaning to one side when he swims, and its really scaring me. I have a filter, and he lives with 2 cories (one recently died). Speaking of cories, my cory won't get up off the ground. He has a frayed tail and he will swim up...

its not a neon, btw. its sort of cauliflower... more just sandpaper-y looking. nothing else is wrong with it except for this weird bump.

ok I have to find my dig. so i can take a picture of this thing, but underneath my one black tetras mouth there is this nasty scabby wart thing goin' on. it looks like he ate a brainy looking scab and it got stuck under his bottom lip [obviously thats not what happened thats just what it looks...

about the silvertips, i have five and one of them is purely transparent now while the other four are still bright gold. he used to get chased and picked on and thats when he started to lose his colour, but hes fine now. don't worry about it really, i thought about isolating mine for a while but...

:-( :byebye: just wanted to let you know that my little adf [hedwig] just died. She just wasn't the same since her little pal Trevor bought the farm about a month and a half ago. She probably missed him. All frogs go to heaven. Anyway, the pain of her broken limbs may have been a little much...

:-( I'm not sure what happened to it. Maybe it injured itself on the filter or something, but it's sure not looking too good. I have to help it to the surface for air and it really won't eat anything. Can I take an ADF to a vet?

My ADF has a broken leg and possibly an injured arm as well. I've put im in a breeder net so I can monitor it fed him some bloodworms, but I'm wondering what to do. Poor thing cant swim porperly, I'm wondering if I... oh I dont know. What do you think? :-(

my sister's three albinos always do that its so cute. they are so wriggly and they realyl will eat out of your hand if you try it :wub:
