Question: Hello! I woke up this morning, and my deep blue/green alien betta was completely white and pink with just a little bit of color in the fins. He went back to normal within 30 minutes of me seeing him this way, and now, hours later, is still acting normally with full color. Pictures are...

My co-worker got a beta for the office and basically didn’t care for it. The water got pretty gross and when he wouldn’t do anything I just ended up adopting the poor thing. It’s been a little less than a month. I’ve given it new filters, changed the water, and gotten some water treatments as...

Hi, I’ve just subscribed to this forum because I’m currently panicking. I just noticed my white opal betta has some slight dark coloring on his fins and they look much less full than they used to.

I have a 2 year old dragon scaled male betta (Iroh). He is in a 5 gallon heated and filtered tank. 5 days ago I put a platy in with him, who is currently doing wonderful. Today Iroh was hanging at the bottom the tank more than usual and I noticed dark to black discoloration on his side and...

Hi everyone, I had just brought my betta back home and did an 100% water change, and I didn't add water conditioner right away because I couldn't find it. I thought that my city water was pretty clean... I've done 100% water changes before and sometimes didn't add conditioner right away, but...

Hi everyone :love: I'm not sure if this is a disease or not, but I've noticed that my betta fish "Socks" has a bit of discoloration on his pelvic fins and under his body. It sometimes looks dull grey and other times looks tan/dullish brown. I took some pictures an hour ago and it was tan, but...

Hi everyone, I have a betta fish that has been perfectly fine for the past 2 months, and I've been changing his water once a week and nothing's happened so far but this: Over the past 2 weeks, my betta (Socks) developed a small silver/grey patch of scales under his mouth/gills and near his...

Ok there's a lot here so bear with me. About a week and a half ago I finally was able to get a 10 gallon aquarium for my betta (he'd been in a 1 gallon so I thought he'd like this one--he didn't). And about a week into introducing him to the new aquarium I added some other buddies (a pleco, an...

I've had my betta for over a year and I recently purchased a larger 2 gallon-sized bowl for it but noticed that it previously did not want to eat when I fed it. After he seemed happy forming bubbles around the rim of the bowl, he still continued to not eat. I did some research and purchased a...

Hello all. I really need your help. My male crown tail, Finley, suffered from Temp. Shock around August. He's still suffering from what I believe is a sensitive immune system. Today, he's easily prone to constipation, bloating, and swim bladder. The thing I'm worried about is his discoloration...

My stupid cat somehow managed to scoop my betta out of his tank or something I'm assuming it was my cat because she likes to drink the fish water but he was in a ten gallon so she usually doesn't notice him although she may have scared him and he jumped out, but he was completely dry on the...

Yesterday I moved my fish from a 1 gallon to a 5 gallon. As I took him out of the smaller tank, I noticed that around his gills his scales had turned white or silver. I thought it was a stress stripe but now I looked up how those look and I don't think it's that. Housing How many gallons is...

My betta's got some red discoloration around her gills. She's had it since I brought her home 6 weeks ago (the first attached pic was taken before I ever put her in the tank), and it doesn't seem to have gotten worse all this time, it's just always been there. Her behavior is normal and she's...

Hey everyone. Recently had to move my female, Daphne, from my sorority tank to a bowl, for the time being. She seemed to be much happier there, but yesterday I noticed some weird discoloration on the top of her head, I thought just maybe it was normal or marbling or something. Obviously her poor...

I have had my betta, Schooner, for about a year now. I will include a picture, but when I first got him he had beautiful full fins that were white around the edges and reddish towards his body, and the main part of his body was a silvery-grey color. I just got him back from a friend of mine who...
