  1. Betta Fish Diseases and Emergencies
    I had my betta fish for 5 years just about, he's probably around 6-7 years old now. Recently he started getting sick, stopped swimming and slept more, now he's gasping for air and can't move. Is this of old age and normal or is there a way I can save him? He almost died a few months back, but he...

    I’ve had my betta Toby for over a year now, i’m not sure how old he was when I bought him but he was fully grown so i estimated about a year old. His energy has been slowly decreasing and he hasn’t been eating a lot (this has been happening for 4 months now). I assumed that he was getting old...
  4. Betta Fish Care
    Hi everyone. So because my sweet betta boy passed last night, I know I need to start cleaning out his tank and getting it ready for a new friend, whenever we are ready for one. I wanted to ask how to go about this. He passed from something unknown, but he did have a tumor of some sort for the...

    Fish passed away this morning and I noticed these red marks/spots on face, the fish fins are naturally colored red i’m pretty sure it’s just the face. Also looks a little bloated, Id just like some thoughts on what this could be so I know for the future. Tested the water and showed it was all...

    Wolfy, you were one of my favorite fish I ever had. I will miss you flaring at me when I walk into the room. I will miss the games we used to play like folllow-my-finger, and jumping for food. I will miss giving you treats on saturdays and I will even miss cleaning your tank. You were so...

    Hi, I had my baby betta fish die today, and I am very worried since I have no idea why. For background information, I decided to use some of the money I had saved from working this summer to buy a second betta, since I love having bettas and having one during college has done a lot for my...

    I don't know what is going on, I have a community, and last week one of my Bettas died, and today I just witnessed one of my guppies died. I don't know what is going on, I need to figure this out before I lose more. I had two female bettas, they were seperated in the tank, Betta that died...

    Hey folks, My girlfriend's co-worker gave us a tank (Top Fin Aquascene 180 3.5 Gallon Aquarium) because she moved, it's this one here, and recently my rescue crown tail died in it (along with the ghost shrimp he was mostly eating). He was sucked up into the filter it came with, so I'm thinking...

    While driving me to school today, my mom told me that when she was feeding Zuko this morning, he wouldn't eat and was acting very lethargic. I told her to add some seachem to his water when she was home at lunch(since I had forgotten to put some in the night before), but when she got home, he...
  11. Planted Betta Tanks
    Good morning, everyone. I got a betta earlier this week who unfortunately died this morning. :( We never really figured out what was wrong with him and I guess he was too far along in the disease to really be helped. Anyway, I have a lovely piece of driftwood in the tank, and I tied some java...

    My fish died unexpectedly after a water change last night (RIP Krijger :cry:) My question is should I start the tank again? Heres a little info on the cleaning haha I had to clean my tank because of a dead snail (so obviously pretty high nitrogen compounds), I also added (cleaned obviously) new...

    My brother had 2 bettas. He took good care of them for a while but they died while I was away at college and he isn't interested in having anymore. He told me I could have his old tanks. They are both filtered and have heaters which is great. the only problem is that he was dumb and never...

    I remember the day when I got you as a gift and got to choose which fish I would take home. You being the darkest of them all I brought you home to find out that you were instead the brightest one of them all. I'm sorry I wasn't ready to properly treat you the way a proper fish should be taken...

    My roommate's cat somehow knocked my tank onto the floor early this morning. It took a minute to find poor Daffy on the floor, but soon I got him set up in a little med area. At first he looked very dead, but after about an hour, he started moving again! The problem is, he might have been...

    Hello. My beautiful betta, Takeshi, has been battling dropsy for a while now and seems near his end. :( His belly is incredibly swollen and his scales are pineconing. He spends most of his time at the bottom of his tank, face-first into the rocks, and struggles to eat. I tried treating him with...

    Unfortunately I have to start this post by saying my beautiful betta fish, Sir Bubbles, passed this weekend. After a long 3 months battling fin rot (or possibly columnaris, never really could figure it out) I decided it was time to put him down. Now that's it been a few days I've started to...

    So yesterday (Sunday) lunch time, I actually witnessed my Ben dying, I didn't realize at first that I had watched him die but I was too late, after I watched him die which I thought was just him spazzing out I quickly got his hospital tank all ready for him and went to scoop him out to find him...

    On the 25th of November, 2014, my very first aquatic friend is no longer any more. He succumbed to extreme bloating and dropsy, but seemed to heal slightly then showed me he completely is incapable of activity anymore. Knowing all this was just making his life a misery, I had no choice but let...

    My little guy that I had for three weeks died the other night... I had him in with a sponge filter right around the time he showed symptoms of being sick, so I know the filter needs to be sterilized. I'm just not really sure how to do it. I would get a new one, but this unit is brand new and it...
