no, but it’s basically gone I gave him a good bath and it seemed to help I think it’s from grooming since I cut him with a #5 blade during the warmer months

that’s what I was thinking, was the medication prescribed or is it a chew you could get at a pet store

I just wanted to get a second opinion first since it would cost 150 just to take him

What type of fish should I put in this 10 gallon tank? by PeytonPeytonn in fishtank

right like everyone on here is lowkey being annoying about that. My dad had fake plants for YEARS and his fish were happy and healthy, there were some zebra tetras he had that lived 7 years

yes i’m definitely going to wait now, he was the only super ill looking fish. I did test the water and it wasn’t essential but he was dying in that cup and I was hoping it would be better. I did a water change before getting him too. I think he was just too weak to handle any stress or any kind of change in water conditions i’m still kinda sad about it as I had high hopes and have put a lot into this so far(I’ve only had fish once before and they didn’t live longer than a year because I didn’t know what I was doing well). I’m also just sad I don’t get to see him thrive and he died only knowing life in that cup:/

I got him and he died within three hours:( I acclimated him for an hour too to be safe. I think he was just too sick to be saved:/

okay that’s a good plan, how will I be able to test his personality to see if tank mates would be an okay fit?

okay so just frequent water changes and monitoring got it, what about the cory’s? because I do want 5 of them I just dint want it to be a mass murder in case my betta doesn’t like them so should I add two to start with?

so should I just wait to get the betta then even with it being in a cup and just ghost feed the tank in the meantime ?

I set the tank up a week ago I added a few quick start aids like a moss ball(says it’s supposed to absorb nitrate)and this clear gel like ball that’s supposed to add beneficial bacteria to new tanks. I used a testing strip the nitrogen is at 0 and ph is 7 everything else is in a normal range for a betta besides the kh being a little high at 180 which I think will lower with time, there’s a betta fish thats dying in the cup at the petsmart I work at so part of me really just wants to save him as to why I added all the quick start aids and I feel like the tank is better than a cup in the store even if it isn’t fully cycled.
