    Hi. I’m new here but I have had bettas before. My current one is in a 5 gallon tank by himself and he loves his pagoda. He goes there every time he wants to sleep and it’s one of his favorite places to hide. But he got bloated about a week ago and I took his pagoda out for a bit. I put it back...

    A couple of days ago, almost a week ago, my fish started to swim sideways and was really bloated at one point. I obviously assumed it was SBD and started treatment right away. I did small water changes daily, increased the temp of the tank to 80-82 degrees and fasted her. However, the...

    Jet has had a small lump on one side of his body for a few months. It didn't seem to bother him or affect his appetite or energy, so I assumed it was nothing to be concerned about and figured he might just be eating too much. Recently, it has become much larger and he is lethargic. The last...
