Hello all! I recently finally got my fish tank set up and its a nice 5 gallons with my betta and 3 neon tetras in it. Unfortunately, I didn't notice that until after I bought my betta, Hoth, that he is missing one of his fins. Its his right one that's under his head. I'm treating him with melafix (I noticed blood the first day I had him which is when I noticed the missing fin). And so far he acts normal. All of today though I've noticed that he likes to rest directly on top of my tank's heater. It's not hot enough to cause him damage (it shouldn't be at least) so I can only assume it must feel good to him/his missing fin area. Should I be worried about this?
