The heater keeps the tank at 80 degrees F. My sister set up the heater, but all I know is what I just stated.
Yes, it has a filter.
The current, Im not much of an expert on that, but my best answer is that the current is moderately strong.
Yes it’s cycled
I change the water every four days
To be honest, I don’t vacuum the substrate. Never really felt the need to.
I use AquasafePlus to dechlorinate the water from my tap.
When I clean the tank, I usually take out the decor one at a time and scrub each with a toothbrush and tap water. That’s basically it.
I feed him every day with Aqueon ColorEnhancing BettaFood. Two pellets in the morning and at night, sometimes I skip feedings to keep him not overfed.
One tankmate; a nerite snail.
I’ve had my betta for nearly a year.
This is the first time he’s gotten sick.
The decor is from Petsmart, just red colored fake plants. I have a live plant, it’s an anubia.
I can’t provide any photos right now, sorry.
The questions I skipped were answered in my original post.
