Hello! I'm not seeking treatment advice, just wondering about plants in my hospital tank. I set up a 1 gallon jar for my little dude in hopes of helping him recover from some pretty aggressive fin rot yesterday. The attached photo has everything labeled that's inside his set up. I've read...

I just can't seem to help Dennis with this case of fin rot. 5 days ago I posted on Reddit in the r/bettafish forum this: So over the past two weeks, Dennis has really been struggling with an intense case of fin rot. I've never had to deal with fin rot before, so of course I'm freaking out and...

Hey Guys! I'm still pretty new to this forum & let me just say that I LOVE it here! Everyone is so helpful & relatable! OK, so I need some advice. My betta is not sick yet, but he DOES have some severe tail biting issues. Anyways, how can I have a successful hospital/quarantine tank on hand...

My betta is currently alone in a 20 gallon tank. 100% daily water changes are not going to happen in it, and supposedly the AQ salt would kill my plants anyways. I do not have and cannot afford a separate heated quarantine tank. What I do have is a plastic fishbowl. I don't think my heater...
