My betta has fin rot and it has gotten progressively worse just in the last day even after a large water change. I checked my levels just now and the only difference from normal is the nitrate level, which still is technically reading as safe but is definitely much higher than normal (now...

So someone said not to use Prime and Stress Coat together?? Why not? I have been for a few weeks now.. I really hope it isn't threatening :cry: could someone please clarify for me if it's okay to use these two products together or not so I can cease use immediately if it's negative. Thanks :)

Hello, So my betta, Sebastian, has had this weird bump on his side for at least a month, maybe up to 2. At first I just figured he bumped into something in his tank and got a little wound, but it'd heal. Well it doesn't seem to be getting any better, in fact I'm pretty sure it's doubled in size...

Hello, my roommate also has a betta fish and I think he is a tail biter, but I wanna make sure. I guess we aren't technically roommates since we don't live in the same room but sometimes I go in her room to check on her betta because she keeps him in a tiny vase with no heater and no place to...

Hiya ! Just came back from our crap overpriced LFS . Lol . :roll: Ponyo hit his back on the siphon and so I went to the local fish store to grab some mess and a water testing kit . Turns out their kit is 50$ !!! Heck no . So I ended up just grabbing ph and ammonia because the guy said that is...

Last night, my betta fish, Aomine, jumped out of his smaller container when I was trying to take him out of his tank. He landed on my laptop and then flipped onto the chair. I immediately put him back into his tank. He was shocked for a little, but now he's swimming around and acting perfectly...

Hello again Betta fish community! Sorry for making so many posts but something has appeared with my little betta! I adopted my first betta ever a month ago from a local walmart and he now stays in my dorm room. He is a male lavender butterfly/dalmation (I think o.o) and his name is Sushi. He...

Hey guys, I want to put API Stress Coat into Chibi's tank, but I have a question. Do I just use Stress Coat (because the bottle says it makes tap water safe) or do I also add my Betta Bowl Plus conditioner with it? Also, the stress coat says to add 10ml for every 10 gallons if repairing damaged...

i'm planning to buy API Stress coat because i can see a little bit of fin rot on my betta. since it's also a water conditioner, can i use it with a different water conditioner that i have already? or is it best to use API only until there's no sign of fin rot?

I've seen quite a few references on the boards lately to Stress Coat. Thankfully my Ninja is healthy and in no need of additional things in his tank, but I want to know anyway. What is Stress Coat? Is it something separate from water conditioner? Is it added to water during a water change in...
