Hi guys,
I've had "Manny" for almost 6 months now, hes a great little plakat. However he seemed to get lice or a paracite of sorts (maybe from new snails? looked like disc shapes on his sides, discolouration and stopped eating) so I treated with anti paracite treament. It seemed to work, however he has stopped eatin for two weeks now, thou he is still active and flaring.
I bought a fresh pack of his food but still spits it out and swims away. I have heard Bettas are fussy but thought if i just kept tryin maybe he would start munching again. Getting very worried now I have seen on ebay someone is offering fresh bloodworms for a reasonable price, however im worried about introducing a new paracite on the live worms... Does anyone have any suggestions or how to entice his appeitie? Thanks
