i bought my male betta about two weeks ago from wal-mart and i noticed his water was getting cloudy quickly so i started doing more frequent water changes than once a week...this past weekend i noticed that there was chunky white things floating in his water. i took a sample to my local petco and the fish guy there told me that it was one of two things my water or my fish...we tested the water and it was fine. i am using a good water conditiner for bettas and feeding him pellet food. i came home and did a complete water change and set his bowl up but did not put him in it (i put him in another bowl to see if it was the water or if it was the fish) this was on saturday...today when i came home i noticed that only the water of the bowl that the fish was in had the white chunky things again...is my fish shedding his slime coat? if so what can i do for him? he is active, eats well, not losing his color, his fins and scales look healthy...i got him some stress coat today and put it in his tank but is there anything else going on? has anyone else ever had this problem? please help me i am severly stumped with this one
Thank you
