Its gotten a bit worse since this morning. I just did a 25% water change.

Hi! My new betta (double tail half moon) has been living in his 3.5gal for 4 days now after buying him from PetSmart. Hes very active but today i noticed the top of his double tail seems a bit clamped. The tank has a heater, temp is around 77-78F, filter and testing for ammonia this morning...

I have added 1 and 1/2 tsp of API aquarium salt, and when I replace a gallon of water i replace 1/2 tsp of salt. The tank is 3.5 gal. I originally started the salt on August 1st so I'm worries about having it in there too long. There is only one male betta in the tank. I also noticed he was...

Hi again. His fins have lost significantly more tissue. Ive tried adding salt but have seen no change. The water is now clear and water parameters are still 0ppm nitrites and ammonia. Not sure what else to do at this point. Please help

Thank you! I may give it a try! I know its not filtered out and doesn’t evaporate, so do you need to do a full water change at the end of the treatment? Or just stop adding salt when you would usually add it after taking water out? (I don't know if I'm making any sense! Haha!)

Hi! I’m actually in Canada, so I’m not sure if this is an option for me or not? I have moss balls, catappa leaves and aquarium salt ordered all of which Ive heard good things about. (Not for fin issues necessarily) If that treatment works for you please let me know! Thanks

Hi there! I got the API master test kit and tested the numbers. As of yesterday it was sitting at 0 ppm ammonia 0 ppm nitrite and ~5-10ppm nitrate PH was sitting at about 7.8 which i know should be around 7.5. Im using dechlorinator each time new water is added to the tank. Ive just cleaned the...

Hi all, I just got a betta (my first fish) two weeks ago and noticed his fins have started to split. He lives in a 3.5gal filtered tank ( no heater yet, but I plan on getting one in the future - any amazon recommendations would be appreciated). I’ve used bettafix over the last week but have not...
