Broken heart ( first betta rescue)

[CandiceMM]

He definitely swims a lot better and his back is much straighter. The only thing I want to see get better is his fin regrowth, when he is on the bottom of the tank he rests mostly on his bottom jaw and his rear end mostly in the air. It can't be comfortable for him :(

You've really inspired me to do the same, the Petsmart here definitely doesn't tend to the Bettas at all.. it's sad, really. But serious props to you! He's looking so much better, just wait until his fins grow back! I'll also be stalking this thread for updates, what a great thing to do. :)

So I got the fish girl from Petsmart to take little Finrot off the sales floor so he can get quarantined and treated for yep Finrot and bloat. hopefully he Pulls through.

I too will definatly be stalking this thread. It would be cool if he turns out with that silvery body color.

I just want to say the praise and support from all of you guys really pushes me to help this poor soul survive. I am doing around the clock feedings, water changes daily, special treatments and tons of love.

This morning he was a the top of his tank relaxing, he was swimming even better to my surprise and It made my heart just smile. I am already 100% attached to him and if he makes it through these hard time will have a permanent home with me. A very spoiled home.

Again thanks for all your support, he needs every ounce he can get.

Aww~ It's so sweet how people can come to love someone or something in such a short amount of time! In your care he'll definitely thrive! XOXO!

Awww Thank you pinkcupid, you are so sweet. I'm trying my best and doing a lot of research. It's a great learning experience for me. I just picked up some stress coat, I am hoping that will help along with some aquarium salt and warm water. Im anxious to help his fin grow back.

He's a cutie CandiceMM. I just wanted to say I think you should name him Broken Heart, like the name of the thread, if he pulls though.

Every animal I have known named lucky (by many different people) has been very unlucky later in life.

I hope he pulls through and gets 100% better for you

Looks awesome. It looks like his fin rot has gone and he looks fatter :)
