Please help me help my betta!

Update: He is swimming around his tank almost regular I think! Today I'll give him some pea.

 

[FishGuest5123]

Great news! Just one pea...don’t overdo it.

 

[Jessa+BlueBoy]

Okay!

 

[Jessa+BlueBoy]

I cleaned his tank last night....he's on his side again. WHAT IS WRONG?

 

[Jessa+BlueBoy]

He's still on his side and bloated. He won't eat the pea.... he doesn't seem hungry. Anyone?

 

[FishFinatic77]

Have you tried soaking the pea in garlic?

 

[Jessa+BlueBoy]

No. What does that do?

 

[FishFinatic77]

Fish love garlic, so if he won't eat the pea on its own, he might like it better if it tastes like garlic.

 

[Jessa+BlueBoy]

Hm. That's interesting. If I were to guess I would say fish shouldn't have garlic! But I'll try that tomorrow. Also, he looks very bloated.
