my betta Severus, has been sick for about two days i finally got medicine hes very bloated, cant stay up horizontal, scales sticking out and the cloudy eyes... i hope its not to late. i got this fizzy tablet med for bacterial and fungus stuff... the directions say 1 tablet for every 10 gal but i dont have him in one so i cut the top off of a milk jug(very cleaned out of course), but i put 1/4 of the tablet in a bucket and let it dissolve and poured a gal in the the empty milk jug and does anyone know how often to change the water like change the gal compelety with the left over in the bucket? or every four days i think it said? the directions are terrible and dont explain anything. if someone could help answer soon thanks :)
 
three words jumped out at me, "scales sticking out". this is not good. you fish has dropsy a.k.a pine cone disease. i am sorry to say this but i am 99% sure there is not cure :-( one of my bettas has had it too. the best thing you can to do is put him to sleep. i personally put them in the freezer so they can go to sleep and die. other people like to cut the head cleanly off :sick: or put them in a bag and drop a big brick on them :sick:. i am sorry about your fish and hope this never happens again :(
