Fish Fanatic
My betta has been showing signs of clamped fins starting 3-4 days ago. He's active and eating well but I can't seem to pinpoint the issue. I got him April 8th of this year.
GOING TO TREAT WITH PARACLEANSE
VERY LETHARGIC AND WHITE POOP-SAME SYMPTOMS OF THE OTHER BETTA WHO DIED
*****IMPORTANT TO NOTE: he was in the same 5g 4 days ago but split between another betta. This means he had 2.5 g of space to swim (but his fins were open). He has recently gotten the 5g for himself because my the other betta died due to dropsy. His first symptom before he got dropsy was white poop and he died 2-3 days later.
Tank size: 5 gallon tank
tank age: 4 Months
pH: 7.8
ammonia: 0-.25 (more towards .25)
nitrite: 0
nitrate: 5-10
kH: N/A
gH: N/A
tank temp: 78 degrees
Fish Symptoms (include full description including lesion, color, location, fish behavior): clamped fins and LETHARGIC and white poop
Volume and Frequency of water changes: 25% weekly
I started yesterday that going to be doing 25% every other day for the week to combat the symptom. (good idea or no?)

Tank inhabitants: Betta and snail
Recent additions to your tank (living or decoration): umbrella plant roots in water started like last month
