Correction: DAD is the one who won't listen....no matter what I say or try to show him, all he says is "It's probably just something to do with the high nitrite"

Ok. I can't really do a whole lot now, sadly, because we're getting pretty low on money >.< Bubbles was back to her normal colorful self this morning, and pretty much has been all day. :popcorn: I think we have another problem with the bettas, though... Blossom, the darker one, I'm pretty...

I found the paper my dad used to write down the nitrate, nitrite, and ammonia levels on when he took the water sample to have tested (he did this on 8-23). Nitrate: 4.0 Nitrite: 1.0 Ammonia: .25 And yes, the guy who tested it for us said that the first two are really bad xD

Yep, we did the cycling. We let it cycle for a couple days before we even bought our betas (forgot to mention that xDD). As I said before, we waited a little over a week before we added a couple more fish to the tank. Also, our tank is pretty big...we bought it at a yard sale, but if I...

I just joined this website, so I will work on putting in my fish information in a little bit...I'm just really worried about one of our female bettas. (I'll try to make this as short as I can xD) My family and I are brand new to having an aquarium. We bought our first fishies about a month...
