I recently got a new Betta fish male. I bought him a 5gallon, with live plant, and a fake rock decor. The water I used for the tank was from my 50gallon established tank. I let the tank cycle for at least 6 hours... (during this time my Betta was still in the cup I bought him in, in my bathroom in the dark)... Then put him in.
Over the next few days, he is acting normal, and seems very aware of everything, but I noticed something strange on his head. I do not know if it is a sore/wound, or just some bad breeding.
I also noticed, his fins are starting to slightly bend (mostly the bottom), and the top dorsal is curling a lot more.
Please and thank you, I love this lil guy~
