My Male Platinum Delta Tail has had a drooping fin ever since I bought him at the pet store. I noticed that he wasn't the most healthy Platinum betta but he kept looking at me. I heard it's similar to orcas when kept in tanks, could his fin be drooping from being In a container so long? I just got him 4 days ago so please no drastic changes, he's just starting to eat. 20190512_093059.jpg20190512_093318.jpeg
 
Temperatures is at 75° Fahrenheit, I haven't done any cleaning, I cycled the tank for 2 months and I got the betta 5 days ago
 
Im guessing he was kept in less than ideal conditions so maybe all he needs is time in the right conditions to repair himself. Feed a good quality food and make sure you keep his water pristine and see how he progresses.
