So here is the story. I have had an awful history with Halfmoons from my Local petstore. I thought it was my poor care. But it is only the halfmoons that ever have problems. So I am trying to figure out what is wrong with him.
Is it possible that Petco has Halfmoons with bad genes or what? Its so odd...
Parameters :
Ammonia : .25ppm
Nitrite: 0ppm
Nitrate: .05ppm
So As far as I know those are good parameters... with the exception of the ammonia. My tap water has .25ppm though. So there isn't anything I can do about that. This is also tested on the side that DOES NOT have a filter. This is a divided ten gallon tank, only two male bettas are housed in it!
I am going to put pictures of him up... so any help at all would be appreciated. I have tried clean water, and salt... to no avail. he has only gotten worse. He eats well and is full of energy. The fish he shares a tank with is 100% fine. No damage at all.
