    Fin Rot Or Fin Nipping?

    I looked but there wasn’t anything more powerful at my local pet store and I don’t really have another close by. Plus Mr.President seems pretty stressed, being lounged at the bottom of his bowl more often, or in his plant and his body got fairly pale and striped during this most recent...

    Fin Rot Or Fin Nipping?

    Well, I'm treating him with BettaFix Remedy. I was wondering though if I should still be using salt while I'm doing this treatment? It says on the bottle to treat for 7 days before doing another water change. I cleaned and started fresh of course. I washed and put his plant back in, but I...

    Fin Rot Or Fin Nipping?

    Well it's happening to his tail now too. Over night the tail now looks like the dorsal fin. His tail is red, so I can't tell for sure if there is any extra redness, but there is for sure no blackness. I did notice however that the very tips of his tail became slightly transparent, when normally...

    Fin Rot Or Fin Nipping?

    I am not sure if my betta is nipping his own tail or if he has a case of fin rot. I just noticed today that his dorsal fin is looking a bit shredded. There is also one piece of the fin hanging off but all the rest of his fins are fine. I recently changed his tank and I don't think he liked it...

    Betta Fish Won't Fan Tail...

    I know don't if anyone is going to be reading this, but I thought I'd post anyway that my lethargic uptight Betta is doing better. He is even beginning to let his tail fan out. I followed most of the suggestions I was given, especially about the water and changed his food. He loves the BettaMin...

    Betta Fish Won't Fan Tail...

    I appreciate all the help... I just want to be a good Betta parent. I’ll work on all these suggestions and keep posting changes in my fish’s behavior or if I have more questions!

    Betta Fish Won't Fan Tail...

    Wow, ok... I guess I should have joined this forum before reading all the other sites out there... you know they all say something different about what is “proper Betta careâ€￾. I will work on some on your suggestions ASAP. I just thought since 1 out of three of the fish reacted this way in...

    Betta Fish Won't Fan Tail...

    I used distilled water at room temp, about 73*F-75*F. It is in 1 gal of water with some standard aquarium rocks and a plastic plant with plenty of hiding room. I don't know the ph or anything else really. I was feeding it both the Betta pellets and frozen brine shrimp. But it seemed to like the...

    Betta Fish Won't Fan Tail...

    I recently bought three bettas, all for separate tanks of course. Two of them seem chipper and excited and adjusted really well to their new homes. The third one has been a little different. He doesn't swim around his bowl much and he never once has spread out his beautiful long tail. It doesn't...
