I just got a betta this past Monday, and put it in a brand new 5.5gal tank. He did fine the first few days, but he hasn't eaten much. I wasn't too worried until today, when he decided to hang out at the bottom of the tank under cover of a rock ornament, and only comes up for a surface gulp of air occasionally. Also noticed his fins have holes in them! Not fin rot that creeps inward from the edges, these are pin prick like holes, that appear to be growing. If he were a leaf I'd say I had bugs. Does this sound like a parasite of some sort? I have Jungle Parasite Clear on hand...I'm thinking of dosing him.
