Aww how cute, I wish my boyfriend was this interested in my bettas. He thinks it's strange, but he loves me anyway. How did you get your boyfriend intrusted in bettas? You two look adorable together.
He loves my betta with me because he sees how much it helps my depression and severe anxiety. He also has a big soft spot for animals. :3 but daryl is doing ok. I have never seen a more determined fish in my life! He is on his side bUT he still flares at his reflection. And whenever I move he still swims up excited to see what I'm doing. Also he might still be bloated but he is still constantly begging for food! there is no stopping his Spunk lol. I pick up his feeding spoon and he goes absolutely nuts. Hes my little fighter.
I feel your pain with anxiety and depression. Maybe he just has swim bladder if he's acting like that. Swim bladder isn't life threatening, check his poop and see if it's a normal color. But yeah, that sounds like swim bladder to me.
Yeah it is and he has some slime issues with some fin rot as well. His poop is huge and I only see it once in a while so he's really backed up but he is a fighter
For the slime coat issue you can fix with ap stress coat. It's easy to find at pet stores. Don't worry your cute boy is not in life threatening condition. Try feeding him less and try drawing on his tank with dry erase markers. My female tiffy throws a flaring fit when I draw on her tank. Also try different colors tiffy tries to bite the red dry erase marker tip when I draw on her tank with it ( she is a red betta ironicaly)
I've actually have had nothing but great luck with Bettafix. But I'd recommend the Stress Coat. I don't use anything else for my water! Your boy is a fighter and will do just fine! I simply adore how sweet your BF is!
I have anxiety too, but I get through it with God. I give my worries to God and He takes them away. He is always there for me! "For I know the plans I have for you, says the LORD, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you a hope and a future." Jeremiah 29:11. I hope your little guy is doing well! <3
Love this, it's very true. When I was worried about Dangerous I prayed, quite often.
