This is Peeps, my Betta that I have had 3 weeks. He has been fine until this evening when I realized that he has been hiding most of the day. I noticed a pronounced color change near his tail. In the picture you can see it on his back half and is marked by the sudden almost diagonal line. Please note the color change near his head is his natural color as well as the dark spot on his tail. I'm concerned about the dramatic diagonal stripe that has developed since yesterday. He is in a 10g tank with ghost shrimp, the tank is lightly planted with Wisteria, Pennywort and Windelov. The water parameters are ammonia 0, trites 0 and trates 10. my water is hard and in the 8 range ( i did not run the high PH range test this time). Any advice is greatly appreciated, i'm very worried about him as well as the ghosties.
