He's acting really lazy, lazier than a Betta should be.
He is kinda just lounging on the bottom of the tank-- a five gallon, filtered and temp at 78*F.
I had him in a temporary 3.5 with a filter but no heater, so I ended up getting the five because he couldn't wait for a divider in the ten.
I'm having to do a fish in cycle because it was urgent to get him moved. I did put the filter cartridge from his other tank in next to the new one to seed the tank. That'll help, I know.
I did a 50% water change when I saw him acting strange. It helped a bit. He swam around, curious, when I was doing the change, but then after the water settled down, he just kinda went back to the bottom.
Does this sound like it's just because of the cycle? Just keep up on PWC? I can't post my parameters because it's too late, but I'll get them up tomorrow. Thanks in advance.
