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.

And this is him, Blue. Also, the filter and heater.

Hi! I tried Bettafix, aquarium salt, change my dechlorinator to Sechem Prime. No matter what I try, my betta’s fin rot seems to get worse. Some are honestly starting to look like they’re going to fall of soon. I don’t know what to do anymore.

Yeah. The temperature is always the same. So, I shouldn’t do anything else? I mean he got more fin rots. Maybe it’s because of the water quality or I didn’t put enough medicine for him? I don’t know. I’ve never had a pet before. Also, for a 3 gallon tank, how often should I do pwc? And how much?

Oops! Never mind. The pictures are okay now.

I’m still getting used to this app. I’m sorry that the pictures show up 2 times. Anyway, the old injuries are still there. I just want to show the new one at the bottom there.

I took this one today.

These pictures were taken before using BettaFix

I have a 3 gallon tank, and my male betta is the only fish who’s living in it. After the medicine, I thought he’s betta and all, but today, when I checked on him earlier, I saw more of his tails start curling up and black.

I didn’t notice anything with his behavior to begin with. I knew he has fin rot only because his fin look different. Plus, you guys help me diagnose him.

By the way, how do I know if the medicine is working? I honestly have to idea of what or where to look for.
