I have had a female betta in a 5.5 gal tank for a few months now. Shes was a sorority fish so I wanted to get her a new tank mate, but 2 betas in a 5.5 gal seemed mean. So I got an African drawf frog. They were doing great, both very friendly and active. However, after a week in the tank, I woke up today to realize my ADF did not make it. Water conditions are great, no aggression between them, so I'm worried he was I'll before I got him. I changed my water, cleaned the gravel and plants. So my questions are:
1. What more is there to do to ensure the tank is safe, after finding my ADF dead?
2. Should I worry about my betta being sick? She now has vertical blue stress stripes.
3. Should I try again with another ADF? My first was from pet smart. If I get another ADF I'll get it from a tropical fish store where I got my betta, at the time they had no ADFs in their inventory.
