API™ MelaFix® Antibacterial Fish Remedy - General Medications - Medications - PetSmart So... about $7. It's also anti-bacterial so that should help reduce the risk of infection while his fins are healing! Keep us updated!

Do you have a Petco or Petsmart? They should probably have it, I go to Petsmart and they normally keep it by the water conditioners.

That's great news! I still recommend the melafex though to help heal his fins.

Did you already at API Aquarium Salt? if so, I would just leave him alone for the night and try to get the melafex tomorrow...

How much pea should I feed him a day?? I have been giving him tiny bits (trying to make them smaller than his eye) a couple times a day. How often should he get peas and for how long? (1 day, 2 days?) Should I just keep giving them to him until his bloating goes down?

Me too!!! :D Should I stop using the betta fix and just use regular treated water for awhile?? I have been using betta fix for a couple of days now, but I don't know if he's responding to it...

dont worry, i plan on fasting him this week

Yes, I fed him a bit of a pea earlier because he is definately constipated. He was happy to gobble it up! So safe to say his appetite has somewhat returned. Sorry to hear about your tank...

... it's not ich. BUT: Great news! I got back from class just now and naturally checked on Phelps, when I noticed I was back he swam up to the glass like he used to do to say hi to me. He has been swimming around a little, but he is also taking some long breaks near the plants... His fins...

Great news! I got back from class just now and naturally checked on Phelps, when I noticed I was back he swam up to the glass like he used to do to say hi to me. He has been swimming around a little, but he is also taking some long breaks near the plants... His fins are obviously damaged but he...
