I recently bought my betta from a well known pet store and didn't notice he was a nemo. Both of his pectoral fins are damaged but one so badly it seems he has to put in alot of effort in to swim. I have read the "how to" and have basically set up a schedule like this....
Every day- give 1/2 teaspoon API Bettafix (all natural medication)
Every other day- clean out 1/2 fish tank (his home a 1 gallon tank)- I pour water with Top Fin Betta Water Conditioner into spare tank let sit till proper temperture (around 75*f)- pour into fish tank slowly to reduce current.
Every week (or as needed)- Clean out tank completely using same technique as in 1/2 cleaning but moving fish from his home to spare tank and then back. Plus using clean rinsed out rag WITHOUT SOAP to clean sides of both tanks.
I live in Arizona and he seems very happy with the temperture (75*f) and the way he is cared for but I was wondering if there is something I should add/take out to/from my fishes schedule or use different products in order to see results... I have been using this schedule for over a week and haven't seen anything different. Im almost considering taking a picture of him everyday! I feel bad for my new friend! Please any input would be great!
Thanks!!!
