Hello,
I hope I chose the right place to put this as I have a few issues.
Three days ago, I could not pass up rescuing one of the poor Bettas at my local Walmart. The one I chose looked pretty healthy compared to most that were there. I have him in a 10 gallon tank right now. I have a heater and a filter all set up. The heater is one of the problems. It is supposed to keep my tank at 76F-80F. It's currently been at 73/74 the past two days. I'm not sure how to raise the temperature in the tank now. I'm wondering if this could be why my betta is not eating? He stares at the food but does not eat it. He is interested whenever I come around, so he is not sluggish. He is rather active most of the times, just will not eat. My last problem is that my water is slightly cloudy. The first day it was clear, but the past two days I see that it is cloudy. I have not been overfeeding, and have taken out the food that he has not eaten. Thank you all in advance!
