How Do I know if my nephews fish has sight problems? I am a little worried!!!

Why are you concerned? What is leading you to think this? I would go into the disease section, fill out the sticky at the top, use photos if you can, and wait for a (better) reply there.

If he runs into things, won't follow your finger, flare or can't find his food then he may be blind.

Yes, I agree with PewPewPew and dramaqueen

How is your fish doing? Is he eating?

 

[Lchurch7]

One of my bettas started to lose his sight a bit when he was about 2 1/2, but I'm not sure how old he was when I brought him. I had to help him find food by keeping my finger over it. He couldn't see the pellet very well so he would miss a few times. XD

I'm gald your fish is doing well. It is a bit annoying helping a weak sighted fish eat. I don't know what I would have done if my fish needed more than glasses. >.>

even if he IS blind, there's nothing to worry about. having a blind betta is just like having a betta that can see. only difference is, you may have to train him to eat from a certain spot, and be a bit more careful with the decor you put in there.

I'm glad he's doing ok.
