Seems good. He is a little lazy now, and is still slightly bloated. Once I thought he was dead because he was sleeping against the filter intake tube. That terrified me, but I poked him with a net and he went back to normal.

That's all caused by bacterial infections. Quarantining with bacterial medicine can help but seems like your water changes and salt is helping.

Your 0.25ppm ammonia comes from your tests, mine often give false 0.25 ammonia.

Ok. I am confused on dosing salt. How much and how often should I dose it.

Betta has recovered but still heavily bloated. I have fed peas and even starved him. No luck. Maybe he is just one chubby fish
