Long story short, the filter in my 2.5g tank for my female betta completely stopped working. The film that my water gets if the filter stops working came back causing my female betta not to eat. I've been looking everywhere for a filter small enough but no one local has had them & I've had issues ordering one.
Anyway, Duff stopped eating for probably the past week, maybe a little more if she's been spitting food out. I found her last night thinking she was dead. She wasn't. I've put her in a little petco betta cup so she doesn't have to do much swimming to get air. She's looking very weak & even when I drop food in she won't eat it. She just kind of floats. Looks as though she got some ick on her back also. I feel horrible and just want her to feel better. If she does recover I'm going to divide my male's tank so they'll share and she'll get a 5g. I've put two granules of aquarium salt in the little cup but don't dare to put anything else.
Any ideas on how to get her to eat?
