    Newbie With Sick Betta

    There is still something wrong with him, still not eating, coloring is weird and is breathing heavy. :no: I actually put him in a little travel cup and took him to 2 different places, hopefully if they looked at him and they could suggest what was wrong. One place was a tropical fish store...

    Pictures Of Sick Bettas?

    Anyone know of a site when they post pictures of what different fish sicknesses look like? I am not able to tell what is wrong with my sick betta and I am hoping if I can look at pics, I can match it better. I feel very bad for him and would like to be able to treat him.

    Can You Put A Fish Down?

    His fins were not reddish before. He also seems to have white on him now too. I hate to be a bother and keep popping up... I wish I could find out what he needs and take care of his problem.

    Hitting Sides Of The Fish Tank - Why?

    I have noticed several posts stating bettas should not be kept in vases. The one I have was given to me by someone moving away and he came in a large vase (would fit dozen roses). I bought him a small fish tank and when I moved him, he kept banging his face in the walls. I thought he was seeing...

    Newbie With Sick Betta

    On my way home from work tonight, I will try to find another pet store and get Tetracyclin (or the other). If I do find it, do I need to change the water again, then add the new meds?

    Newbie With Sick Betta

    Poor little guy seems to be worse today. He is sitting at the bottom, kind of sideways. He did not even acknowledge the food I put in today. :no: I could not find Tetracyclin or maracyn 2 at the pet store I went to on my lunch break. I ended up with BettaFix Remedy, the clerk recommended...

    Newbie With Sick Betta

    This is how I have been caring for him. He is at my desk at work, A/C (normally about 72 degrees), no natural light. He is in a vase with colored rocks. I was told to change the water once a month. I have been changing the water every 2-3 weeks. I change it 100% with tap water. I put him in a...

    Newbie With Sick Betta

    I have my first betta, which was given to me about 10 months ago. He seems sick and I am uncertain what to do to make him better and to prevent it from happening again. These are his symtpoms: lays at bottom, he is not eat, his face turned gray, barely swim around and breathing heavy. Wondering...
