Believe it or not the house is actually 75 degrees throughout the day and night. I do have some decorations from the other tank I could throw in there.

That’s what I was thinking

I do not have a heater, but I didn’t have a heater in his other small tank. I wasn’t sure if it would matter in a 5g. There are a good amount of places for him to hide. If I could post pictures I would. The app says I exceed my quota for some reason. I’ll figure it out and post a picture once i...

No it is not cycled (I know slap on the wrist for me). I am thinking about putting some sponge or cloth in the back of the pump to reduce the flow. Anything aquarium safe that will slow down the intake/output rate.

This is my first betta fish I’ve ever had. I’ve had two 55g tanks, one salt and one fresh, a 20g fresh, and a 10g fresh, but the fresh were tropical and semi aggressive tanks. ANYWAYS, I’ve had my betta in a half gallon for about a month and a half (I know, not big enough) so I decided to get...

there's photos on my profile!

all of them?

ah ok, well i couldn't say i didn't see it coming.. This is the second fish I've bought from this store that as has a disease, but the only other store here that have fish is pet smart. I have an empty 20 gallon next to my 55 that I was gonna use for a sump. It might have to be a quarantine though.

He's not pale though.
