Hi! I have my betta for nearly a year now, and I’m thinking about getting a tank mate for him. It’s just sad looking at him barely moving in the tank. I wonder if he’s just bored. So, I did some research, and found that the feeder guppy or the nerite snail are compatible with a betta. The...

He’s been in this tank since last summer. I just recently washed the filter pad with the tank water after the aquarium salt had clogged up the filter. I’d change the water about 50% every time I do water changes. He’s in a 3 gallon tank.

So, these are the test for my tap water. I’ve been changing the tank water as someone had suggested me to do so for 3 weeks every day about 50%. Normally, I’d do it once every week. I’m currently giving him only the pallets, 4-5. Once a week I’ll give him the freezed dried bloodworm.

Oh! One more thing, I even changed to Sechem hoping that it’ll help with the Ammonia, but it’s not working.

( I know I’m not supposed to keep adding to old posts, but this is a follow up to the tank quality.) So, this Sunday, it’ll mark the end of the 3 weeks of me doing water changes everyday. I did the water testing today. It says: Ammonia->0.25ppm Nitrite->0 Nitrate-> Just like the picture...

I’m just gonna wait and hope for the best right now.

Everything is eaten. Nothing is left after the feeding time because I always give him one at a time. Also, I don’t give him the combination of pallets and flakes in one day. For example, on Monday, I give him pallets, Tuesday, the bloodworm, Wednesday, flakes, and so on. (The freezed dried...

I’m using this one, and I read the instruction every time before I do the test. Just to make sure that I do it correctly.

Okay. I’ll wait for another 3 weeks like you said to see if he’s gonna be any better. Thank you.

Oh. [emoji23] I’ll be careful. Thanks for the tips.

He is a crown tail betta.

But I guess I have no choice, but to water changes everyday for 3 weeks like you said. For the salt? Should I really continue on with that?

So, I have to keep using the salt? Wouldn’t that cause another problem? I did 10 Days of the salt already. I have my betta for months now. I think since the summer time. I don’t know why, but the tank is still not cycled. What if the keep changing the water everyday for 3 weeks and the tank...

My tank hasn’t been cycled yet. It’s a 3 gallons tank. For the ammonia problem, someone recommended Seachem Prime. I thought it would help me with the problem, but looks like it’s not gonna do anything either. I do water changes every week. I do at least 50% and sometime even more because...

The parameter of the tank.
