Betta Tail

[csjenkins1]

I have a question about my Bettas Tail. Not sure if I am posting in the right spot or not. sorry if i mess up. I have changed his water, added some conditioner to the water, and changed the type of water I use. His tail still looks terrible. What is needed to fix this? Thanks for any help. Corrina in GA

Pictures please?

Water Paramaters? Size of Tank? Heater? Filtration? Water maintence Schedule? Decorations? Can you describe the tail deform?

We need to know these to figure out what it is.

I have the same problem too... my fish's dorsal tail is starting to deteriorate and it looks like a crowntail's tail ... although he isn't. I've been treatin his water w/ water changes every few days, 25%, I use a few drops of bettafix everyday 2 times a day, it started to look better or stop.... and I sort of stopped using the bettafix and it started to get worse....

also... whenever i turn off his lights, and it gets completely dark in my room at nite, in the morning he gets really pale... mayb he likes his lights... but I read somewhere that turning on the light for a long time can be stressful for bettas... hmmm?
