Betta Tail looks damaged

[zpirani]

latest tail pic its not tail rot i dont think but it just seems to be getting smaller n smaller

[zpirani]

ever since i have put the heater in the tank he has been sleeping right by it

[zpirani]

should i take out that big ROCK decor???

[tara41192]

Good! Then let nature heal him

the rock part is fine, the little plastic plants might be doing it though. I would keep his water changes up. Maybe dose with a bit of extra stress coat and aq salt to try to help that fin grow back

[zpirani]

im going to take the rock out leave his tank just plain maybe that will help water temp is at 80F

[lvandert]

yup thats perfect for him. You're doing good with him so far now we just got to figure out what the deal is with his tail. Is there by chance any clearish white fins at the end of his tail?

[zpirani]

no cant see anything like that at the end of tail. i have a snail in the tank too could that be a prob?

[zpirani]

if he sleeps at the bottom of the tank does that mean hes just resting and enjoying the warm water? he started doing that today after heater went on ?

[lvandert]

what kind of snail?
