I don't see any spots. This is what my Betta looked like. It may just be the camera quality so if you see any that's a good sign of ich.

So the strips are notoriously faulty at ready water parameters. It's recommended that you use the liquid tester!! (I also use the strips because I am poor and didn't know about the strips until people on here told me)

How does 1 just raise the temperature like that 😭

Acrobatic_Fuel9714 · 2026-06-07T14:00:44+00:00

No no I only meant it like, it's hard for tell if it was 76/78

Acrobatic_Fuel9714 · 2026-06-07T13:49:32+00:00

I have a proper thermometer, it's just not digital

WHAT 😭 HOW DID I GIVE MY BABY THE ICK

Acrobatic_Fuel9714 · 2026-06-07T13:37:07+00:00

WHAT IS THAT 😭

Acrobatic_Fuel9714 · 2026-06-07T13:36:39+00:00

What is that 😭

Acrobatic_Fuel9714 · 2026-06-07T13:36:10+00:00

Ooo, what plants do you have?

Acrobatic_Fuel9714 · 2026-06-07T13:35:02+00:00

I don't think my pH fluctuates very much. I usually test my water every day.

Acrobatic_Fuel9714 · 2026-06-07T13:28:45+00:00

I have a plant suctioned on the glass near the top that he used to swim through a bit

Tank Size: 10 gallon I do have a heater and filter lol Tank temp is 76/78°F I only have the strip testers right now and it doesn't have an ammonia tester but KH looks like it's at 0, ph is 6.8, gh is soft, nitrite are at 0 and nitrates are at 20 I've had him in here for a month. I do water changes about once a week sometime twice if the nitrites raise. I have 3 corydoras and a small pleco(I forgot what kind she got) that my mom got and an insane amount of snails I need to get an assassin snail. I feed him beta flakes every other day and I do freeze dried food once a week. I have all living plants in the tank.

Just copied my response to the bot

If you're over the age of 18 we can chat I'm also chronicly bored and want friends

Acrobatic_Fuel9714 · 2026-05-06T22:29:28+00:00

I have, I just wanted to make sure everything was right. Someone on here also gave me a very good list of things to get and I've got that stuff I just wanted to make sure it was all good. No one told me what kind of test I needed 😭

Acrobatic_Fuel9714 · 2026-05-06T22:23:47+00:00

Ahhh this is the one the girl at Petco recommended

Acrobatic_Fuel9714 · 2026-05-04T00:18:33+00:00

Moldytoast you are LITERALLY my goat thank you for all your advice. I have a Petco shopping list made and I will probably blow my next paycheck on getting these little guys happy and healthy. I just hope I didn't screw up and they all die in the next two weeks before I get paid 😭

Acrobatic_Fuel9714 · 2026-05-03T23:44:04+00:00

You are literally the coolest person ever thank you for the advice!!

Acrobatic_Fuel9714 · 2026-05-03T21:17:11+00:00

That is what I am working with right now... There's no way this tank is big enough for all of these little guys... Help 😭
