hi there,
my crowntail has been constipated (well on and off) for a few weeks. i'm quite worried. he only likes to eat bloodworms and won't eat anything else. i've really tried.. but nothing works. once i saw that he was constipated, i've fasted him and try to give him a pea. of course, being as picky as he is he won't eat the pea. the epsom bath has been sort of working... but not consistently. i really don't know what else to do. if anyone has any suggestions, it would be greatly appreciated!!!!
some other info is that he's in a 1 gallon bowl that has a weekly water change... usually 1/2 water change one week and the next is a full water change. i always preconditioned the water and add aquarium salt and aquaplus to it. no gravel. too plastic aquarium plants. beside three other betta tanks - 2 males and 1 female. still very active and flare at the others. still interested in eating. unfornately losing his colour... from magenta to pinkish-white.
thank you so much!!!!
