it does have litle white tattered edges at the bottom and red bits.. im so worried about it. and im really sorry i can't put a pic up either. the bottom bits are very thin and white.. It also appears to have lost quite a bit of color. Could someone please tell me the quickest and cheapest way...

hey guys i need your help again! Well i have a 1 gallon ( litre ) tank, i change it every second day, put in the condioner and ager, and i have gravel in it. I feed it once a day, i've done everything everyones told me to. and i think my fish has fin rot! not through all his fins, just a bit...

my bettas made a massive one in my tank, does it mean its happy or content ?

you don't have to be so sarcastic about it. how the hell was i supposed to know what that meant ?

My fish is happy ?

i think theres a bubble nest in my tank. It's not like a huge lump.. but all around the sides tehre are heaps of tiny bubbles that don't seem to pop. Why is it building a nest when theres no females to do it with ?

Re: thanks for your advice, any more advice?

once again thanks for all ur help and advice. Please remmember not to use to many techinical words coz i want to understand everything fully. Well first of all my fish has been sort of going up and blowing bubbles that pop every now and then and then just continuing swimming. Some one said that...

omg are you serious ??? Last time i had snails and goldfish, my 8 goldfish ate the two snails within a week! it was pretty disgusting but the goldfish seemed to love the snails.

hi guys Thanks for all ur advice so far, you're a real help. My Betta won't eat ! i've read that it's normal for betta that's getting used to it's new surroundings to not eat but it's really worrying me. I've fed it the pellets and it won't touch it, it spat it out even! And i tried feeding it...

well theres the water ager, and theres the water conditioner. Water ager is a blue liquid. and the condioner is tiny crystals.

no.. the water conditioner come in crystals and are yellow.. when they go into the water it becomes green.. as for the brand, its a no name brand.

Hi guys My water conditioner clouds my water. My water ager is fine, but the thing is the conditioner makes the water a bit green and murky for a day, but it clears up the next day. My question is, is it safe to put the fish in as soon as you put the conditioner and ager in ? Woud the fish get...

Wow.. so thats why blinky moved so much when i put him near the sunny part of my room.... the things ya learn :!:

to tell you the truth i think it's even under 3 litres :oops:

So does it ? I've seen pet shops with small tanks for bettas and they seem to get along just fine. I mean if you have a fairly big one, i don't have that much space and afterall it's only one fish. Mines new but i gurantee im dedicated to looking after it properly. But sersiously, what are your...

the size of a large coffee jar. Like imagine a lollyjar, a tall widish one, then halve it. I can't tell you the exact measurements coz i don't have a ruler sory! i hope you have a fair idea though.

lol thanks.. this forum is so useful.. yeah no probs, i'd be happy to change the tank every few days. Im just scared that he'll get really angry because he may have just gotten used to the tank and then it's new water all over again.. :( Oh yeah im from Australia so our system of measuring...

hey guys I bought a new Betta ( siamese fighting fish ) today. it's so cute.. but i want to get some more information from all of you. Here are some questions. A) Is it normal for the fish to just lay around and not do anything except breathe ? I heard that it's normal because it's a dormant...
