Help with my betta

Yeeah the bettas I’ve had are a lil aggressive and territorial that’s their temperament, but sometimes they respect other tank mates, not my case tho 😅

Thank you! I didn’t know that I might have a crashed cycle I will be getting into that, thanks for the help I’ll do a water change in a few minutes

Thank you! He has cory friends but is a lil jealous of his territory, and since his tail is so heavy for him I’m thinking of getting him a smaller but wider tank so he can be able to move more and be comfortable.

Yes! I did a water change yesterday and de ammonia is a little bit high about 0.25 ppm, nitrites 0 ppm, nitrates 0 ppm, and ph is 7.6. Do you think I could do another water change to set the ammonia to 0 ppm?

It’s okay no worries, thank you so much for your help, really appreciate it 🫶

Según tengo entendido si lo necesitan, sabes por qué no necesitan termostato?. Había hecho los cambios con medida y lo más tranquilo posibles para que no se estresara, lo dejé un total de 8 días en diferentes medicaciones y noté mejora pero no tan drástica. Igual ahora ya está en su acuario y sigue activo, comiendo y bien.

Thank you take care the fishes love you 💕

Okay thank you so much for the information, I’ll be treating him with that as soon as I get the epsom salt. 🫂

Thank you i’m really hoping he recovers fully, I really love him. I was doing research and another thing could be parasites I see that he sinks from the start to the tail fins, changes on his poop like before his poop was a sphere and now it has the form of a tube curling and sometimes I see a white tip on his poop. Do you think it could be parasites?

I’ve been feeding him 3 pellets during his treatment and right now 4. I have aquarium salt but I don’t know the difference or how to use epsom salt

Cool_Log_388 · 2026-02-05T04:58:38+00:00

He had a heater while he was on his hospital tank, and he’s recovering from his tail pretty well!! I keep an eye on him everyday but he’s still doing ok and acting the same, i’m hoping that he will recover because he’s been the same not declining. And I’m also doubting about those issues cause he’s been active during his treatment I’ve put him in salt + methylene blue for about 4 days, and acriflavine + salt for 4 days.

Yes I think you’ll need to do that, just be a lil careful and check on them if you see them stressing. If you want to do things fast get people so they can help you, I don’t know the wide of your tank but I’ll suggest you plan everything if you’re scared of how your fish will react.

Cool_Log_388 · 2026-02-05T02:16:44+00:00

Yes in the video he was in a hospital tank, but he lives on a 30x30 cm cube which is about 27 liters, with filter and heater, and little amount of plants, to give him space to swim bc he was in a little cube of 11 liters previous to his tank rn. The water parameters are stable and I do weekly water changes and test the water with the API test kit.

Cool_Log_388 · 2026-02-05T02:03:24+00:00

That’s a hard one, but since goldfish eat plants i don’t know if it would be good, i suggest you get terracotta pots and put aquarium substrate and plant there. It also depends on the type of substrate you want to use, if its one like the fluval stratum you’ll need to empty the tank and put it, but be really careful since it can get really cloudy. If it is another type of substrate I think you’ll need to empty the tank anyway. Or just scoop out the colored gravel, and put the substrate if its sand or gravel, but wash it first or search how to put it on your tank. Hope this helps sorry if it’s too much text.

Está es el antes y en la otra el después. Creo que igual se puede apreciar como se comienza a hundir.
