I had my betta tank cycled and he got a fungal infection. So I had to take the carbon filter out to medicate. I put it in a tubaware container with tank water and put it back in between treatments which was every other day when I switched water and remedicated. Then he got better I put the filter back in and everything looked fine. Then I got some root tabs for my westeria plants and I put one in but my betta unburied it. So I did a 50% water change to remove any added nitrogen to the water and added more gravel and a new better plant bulb. That was yesterday. Today I noticed his gills were a little red so I tested the water and did a 50% water change. .25ppms of ammonia before the water change and no nitrites. I didnt test the nitrates cause I'm super tired. What might've caused it? And do I just recycle the tank like I did before?
