Hey folks.
Recently, one of my fighters has begun to refuse any food. Seeming more interested in my finger, than the food in front of him. He's also swimming around the tank like he's desperately trying to find something to rest on, when he does find something ideal, he'll sit there for a good hour or so. He's one of two fighters I bought from someone local to me, and the first one died after becoming like this. She was in a completely different tank, with community fish, and just became lethargic all of a sudden and died for seemingly no reason.
The water levels in the tank are fine, I've just checked them. I water change the tank twice a week. It's a 30 litre, with amazon sword plants and ornaments. PLEASE NOTE: I had a massive infestation of hair algae all over the amazons, which I removed yesterday, could this be the cause at all?
I'd post a picture, but there arn't any physical signs of whats happening. He's usually a very active fish, to the point where I'd yet to see him sleep at night.

Is this the betta whose tail fin would disappear, re-grow, and then disappear again?
