Hello, so recently my male betta fish has (i think) an opened wound on the side of his body. I was changing his water last week when i noticed it and there was a few drops of blood in the container I had him in prior changing the water. I have been using betafix and changing 1/4 of the water to...

Sorry in advance if I placed this under the wrong category I noticed that Drogon's pectoral fins have been getting smaller and what looks like some sort of dark build up around the edges (suspecting mild fin rot), so I'm considering adding some bettafix to his 10 gal. The thing is, it's a...

Two days ago I noticed my betta had a small pinhole in his dorsal fin. I took him out of his 10 gallon put him in a 2.5 gallon QT and gave him the appropriate dosage of Bettafix. His hole healed over almost immediately, but this morning before leaving I thought I should keep him in with the...

About a week ago a friend of mine gave me her male betta after her daughter tried to put him with a school of tiger barbs. Obviously he got eaten up pretty bad :( At the moment he is stuck in a 1 gallon bowl until I can get him a tank of his own. I saw this guy before they put him in with the...

Within the past week or so, my betta has started becoming spotty. His normally purple and bluish body now has white spots. They almost look like "sores". I clean his 1 gallon bowl once a week and make sure not to over feed him. I've also done some research online, but would rather get...

Hello, I was wondering how to use Bettafix correctly? I have read reviews saying that it causes long term health problems, or even death. Is there another way I could use the medicine for my betta? Thank you! P.S: I am using Bettafix because my betta's fins are tearing from bacteria.

Okay so Ive had my betta, Alpha, for over a year now and he has always been pretty healthy but recently I've noticed fin Rot in him so I got some all purpose betta medicine tablets and those only help if I constantly drop one in his tank, when I stopped his fin rot got worse. So I went to a pet...

Hi there guys, I bought my betta fish, Peaches, in late December 2014. I love him to pieces and he's always seemed generally healthy. In the last 1-2 weeks I've noticed he's changed colour slightly, (gotten darker), from when I originally got him and his fins seem clamped. I've never had a...

I created threads asking how my betta's fins became tattered. I came to the conclusion that it was the plants. Consequently, I changed them to silk plants. Now, I need a good medication to treat his damaged fins. I bought Bettafix (Fix Bacterial Treatment) but I was wondering if you guys would...

Hello, I am new to this site, and am posting because my poor betta is suffering from tail/body rot. I am relatively new to betta care, and saved this fish from a wedding centre piece. Due to the fact I am new with fish disease, I did not notice a white spot developing on the base of his body at...

Hello, I'm new to raising bettas but have been raising freshwater tropical fish all my life, ie. guppies, sword tails, mollies, etc. I received a gorgeous half moon betta male named Dagon from my wife for my birthday back in July. About a month ago, Dagon started spitting out his food. I...

Something is wrong with my betta's tail. The tail used to be solid, but now it has broken up into lots of little strings. I don't know what to do! Betta fix has worked with me before, but it wasnt as bad then and my betta was in a small tank, and now hes in a 5 gallon with a snail, can I still...

Housing What size is your tank? - About 1 gallon. What temperature is your tank? - Between 77-80 degrees Fahrenheit. Does your tank have a filter? - Yes, sometimes we turn it off though because it disrupts the water more noticeably. Does your tank have an air stone or other type of aeration? -...

I screwed up big time when changing my bettas water. I cleaned out his bowl (2.5g), left the water 24 hrs and added easybalance and aquasafe. I decided to try bettafix, but instead of adding 2 teaspoons, I added 2 tablespoons! He won't leave the top of the bowl and I'm worried that he's...
