He does seem to be getting better, if not that theres no new black rot that I can find. If it looks to have another break-out, I'll try that stuff. I've got my fingers crossed that it is new re-growth I'm seeing, and not just imagining it. Hes starting to flare at me again, which is good. Flesh...

Noooo hes not going anywhere near that tank, I don't want to spread the finrot. He is in his own heated and filtered 3 gal. I'm treating him with the Jungle's stuff. I was thinking to do a fishless cycle, just wasn't sure if that would take a really long time. I was hoping to go get the two...

I've finally gotten to the last stages of setting up my divided 10 gal! I've cleaned and put the gravel in and same with the two hidey ornaments I bought. Live plants will follow throughout this week and then next weekend, the bettas! Thong is, Iknow I'm supposed to use some mature water in the...

Hey, sorry it took me so long to update. My manager forgot the fungus stuff on Saturday but she'll bring some in this week. So I've been treating with Jungle Fungus Clear. He darkened up and lost his stress lines on me again, which I was happy about. But then this morning hes starting to loose...

Yes I was talking about the aquatic dwarf frogs. We have them at work so I know they can be a little bothersome to feed, but really, my betta is as well XD. You have to drop the food bit by bit, wait for him to swallow then repeat, or he just lets it float away. I wouldn't get an algea eater...

muahaha, I'm having too much fun setting up this tank! I'm setting up a spilt 10 gal in two 5gals, a betta to each side. I wanted to put in a tank mate on each side. I was wondering what my options were in that size. I was thinking a frog in one side, and a cory or an otto in the other? I love...

Nice to know I'm not alone, though I wouldn't wish this on anybody. I'm ready to rip out my hair! I am using the Jungle Fungus Clear, which is also what we use to make betta water at work :P It does seem to work, but as soon as I take him off of it another chunk of fin comes off right away...

I'll try that. I've been feeding blood worms mostly. I have noticed a bit of a slow down in him though. He used to flare at everything that passed his tank, now he just kinda swims up and looks at me. The tank is at 78

I've had my HM mle for about 7 months, five of which hes has a re-occuring fin rot problem. It started really fast, and within about a day half his back fin was black. I treated it immedietly and the rotted fin dropped off. This keeps happening. I treat untill I see some fin re-growth, then back...

Its sad, but lesson learned. And like I said, they're guaranteed to have gorgeous CTs and HMs. You have no idea how hard it is when I'm unpacking bettas! Granted, we never get really nice ones, and only ever VTs, and I don't particularly like them. But the other fish want me to take them home...

I didn't get to go today. I'm in the process of guilting my mom, but really I probably won't have a chance to go. Its a bit of a drive, and over a natoriously horrible for traffic bridge. So its not looking so good. Hes probably gone :(. They always have beautiful bettas there. I got my HM boy...

Technicly I could go get a vase from Salvation Army, but I still won't have my tank set up for at least another month. I'd feel a little bad. ARG.... I'll probably end up going to get him Tuesday XD

Arg. I made the mistake of checking out the betta section at Petland today, and I saw a mustard gas crowntail, something I've been planning to put in my split 10 gal once I get it going. I was soooo tempted to buy him, but I don't even have so much as a vase to put him in. Then of course, once...

So I've been planning on getting a 10g tank and putting a pennplax divider in there. I already have one HM boy, though he won't be going anywhere near there until his stupid fin rot is gone, grrr. Obviously I'm looking to get another betta for the other side XD. I want the tank to be planted...
