I agree with lowering the water level. Has anything environmental changes? Rocks, plants, etc?

my parents are all like "no, he's fine, leave him be!" and they saw him lying down like the pics but they won't allow me to lower the water level . also, no, there weren't any environmental changes.

Little Leaf has a long history of her parents not allowing her to help her pets. I'm shocked that the fish are still alive.

Your parents won't help but we sure will try to! Do you have any way of getting Indian almond leaves? Claim it's beneficial to betta fish (as really it is). It may make him for comfy. Make sure to keep his water clean.

He will be going through some tough time these next few weeks, as like a person who has suffered damage they need to be able to have time to fix the damage and making it bearable. He will take turns for the worse, and we will try our best for you.

If she can't get Indian almond leaves, would oak leaves work?

[Little Leaf]

I used oak leaves and his breathing went back to normal, but he still has that small lump... hmmm

and I'm shocked thatmy parents won't help with my fish but will help a dog!?

(my parents are allowing me to get a dog and they won't help my fish. my parents are fish-ist!! I might give up with the dog idea)
