Need help with this. I just saw this today after feeding him with dried freeze bloodworms. I saw a red part earlier with a blood like mucus but it disappears now.

I've had my boy, Donut, for a few weeks. He's very active and friendly. His was flaring his gills, today, and I noticed something hanging from the right side of his beard. It looks kinda like a large semi-translucent flake or a scale (pictures below), but I don't recall seeing it before today...

Housing: How many gallons is your tank? 5.5 Does it have a filter? Yes - cartridge has been removed due to LifeGuard treatment as of 1 hour ago Does it have a heater? Yes What temperature is your tank? 84.2˚ F Does your tank have an air stone or other type of aeration? No Does your Betta have...

NO SIGNS of lethargy He has been quarantined in this fish bowl for now. His tank is a 5 gallon with a cory cat. Period. Water is Reverse Osmosis. I DID do weekly 25%water changes I got him 4 months ago, was perfect. About a week and a half ago, he started looking like this. Went to aquarium...

Hi everyone! Right before heading to bed tonight I checked up on my betta, Julius (double tail betta whom I rescued a few months ago), and noticed that there were 1-2 white strings hanging from the bottom of his gills (see picture). Anyone know what they might be? Could they be worms? He also...

My Betta, Dawa (moon in Tibetan because his coloring looks like a moonstone) has a odd red spot on his left gill and I often find him flaring only that gill. Other than that, he's very healthy - super active, eats easily, vibrant colors. He bubble nests but only every so often. Anyone have a...

I've attached images! I bought this baby male betta a couple weeks ago from Petco ( I know i'm terrible he just looked so helpless.) When I got him he had this same coloration- white with dull red tail. He has grown a bit since. I keep him in a 2.5 gallon aquarium with a heater and filter. I...

I have had my male betta fish (his name is Socks and I love him very much) for over 2 months now, but just 2 days ago, he has started getting aggressive. He has been continuously flaring his gills at all sides of the tank. I have not changed any aspect of his surroundings, the lighting and...

So my little girl Chie has one red, bloody gill. Looks like there's blood pooling under her skin. And then she's got fungus growing under her "beard". Kind of a pure white, dense ball of fungus. Not fluffy like columnaris. We treated her with bio-bandage directly to the bloody portion, and now...

Really hoping that someone can help me. I've had my fish for about 6 months. He is in a 5.5 galling heated and filtered tank with readings at a steady 0, 0, 5 (ammonia, nitrites, nitrates, respectively). This all started about three months ago when I bought some shrimp to add to his tank. The...

My friend has a female betta in about a one gallon tank (with another female betta) (NOTE: She IS planning to get a bigger tank very soon ;D) She has been eating regularly and looks pretty healthy to me, but it seems like one side of her gills seems to be larger than the other side. I thought...

My betta is turning black and rusty. He has rusty gold patches on his head which are spreading to his body and white:gray on his face and gills. He has trouble breathing because he is always at the top of the tank gasping for air. He has been yawning a lot. I got him from Petco about two weeks...

So Kellam swam up into the filter assembly (not the actual filter) in a Fluval Chi tank. He was in the pipe that feeds the filter the power cables. I got him out of the tube and he plopped back into the tank very confused. No visible injuries that I can see. But his gills aren't visibly moving...

About two weeks ago I was at the petstore.There were only a few fish there and all of them looked pretty rough. However, there was one that was brightly coloured and flaring. I didnt want him to end up like the other fish so I ended getting him on a whim (shouldve done more research first but my...

Hello! I'm new. I often Google specific info for helping care for my recent life partner, Peter the Fish, and wound up here so often I decided to register. I had been wanting to ask someone else with experience about my betta's exceptional rage. I have had many bettas, and had several for many...

Okay so uh... Luther has been with me for two weeks, and he always seemed happy, glass surfing and making bubblenests and all that. But I noticed something about him.. whenever I come to feed him or just watch him, he always comes to my direction and flare for a little while then stop to glass...

Hello folks, I was wondering if you could help me with some concerns I have with my son’s fish, Blue Fin. I’m concerned his gills might be swollen. It looks like the bottom of his gills are puffy. Other concerns I’m having. He’ll open his mouth like he’s taking a really big yawn and...

Hi everyone. Okay so let me give you some back round info. Yesterday I took Poseidon out of the tank into a bowl. In the bowl I had him while I cleaned his tank. After I cleaned the tank I added the filter then I added a liquid called Prime. It helps to clean the water. Later on he jumped out of...

Helloo I just had a question/request for opinion on my fish Henry. I'm new here so not sure if uploading the pictures is going to work correctly, but the first five photos are just different angles of him to show what he looked like closer to the time when I got him (he started turning red...
