I give up. Another dead.

Another mysterious death. Triton. He started acting funny yesterday,changed the water. Today he is dead. I give up. Serious. After all these bettas pass I am done. For good. I cant handle this anymore.

Do you think you can find EXACTLY what they're putting in your water? For now I'd switch to Atison Betta Spa conditioner, since it makes their tanks an ideal envoirment and keeps it at the perfect pH.

im really sorry to hear about your loss....but dont give up!!! maybe there is something someone on here canhelp you with

[fishyinpa]

Thanks Mollie,but Ive lost 11 bettas in less than 6 months,so I dont think anyone can help.
Mr. Vampire,I am sure I can somehow. Ill see if I can find out where it comes from. I never heard of that,I will look for it.
Should I worry about Posiedon? He is in the other half of the 10 gallon. He looks fine,but heck what do I know.

OMG I am so sorry hun! I wish we knew what was wrong with your water. I hope you realize you are a good fish mommy - and this isn't your fault.

[fishyinpa]

Thanks Dr2b. I sure dont feel like one though. If i was so good they wouldnt all die. So I have no idea. Is it the water or just bad quality of bettas. Doesnt seem to matter where I get them. They all die.

this sounds like it has GOT to be your water.........thats too many and probably the only thing thats the same is the water. if you cant find that water maybe you can try bottled water at least until u find out whats in yours from the water company. just dont use distilled water, it lacks minerals fish need

i hope u figure out the problem

[molliefan09]

11!!! i am so sorry.....i understand why you wouldnt want anymore....although im a little confused about the whole something wrong with the water thing........have you let the 10 gal cycle??

[dr2b]

She has had her bettas for a while. It is something with the water quality. I think it had something to do with all the rain we had this past May and June. I noticed it got bad then, and we all had so much rain in the PA and WV area - maybe it washed something into the water that isn't safe for bettas. Because it seemed to be okay before then.

wow...and i thought florida water was bad....i use water testing kits for all my tanks and i use PRIME for every water change....i dont know...im just trying to help, i dont want to see anyone have to give up there fishies because of bad water or even just a bad streak of luck with less than quality fish...
