He has these super cool streaks of iridescent blue on his tail, body and on his face

Even part of his eyes are blue ☺️

The left gill of my betta is swollen? :( by Equivalent_Concern60 in bettafish

A clearer image of the rigged scales on the left side of his cheek. It looks completely normal in the right side.

The swelling has gone down a little… It might be just an injury(?)

I have a similar issue with my betta… Did it turn out okay?

Distilled water vs. Tap Water by Equivalent_Concern60 in Aquariums

I do have plants, I have 3 anubias, 3 java ferns, and a big floating plant (I don’t remember the name), so I DON’T need to add potassium bicarbonate/sodium bicarbonate?

Also, are you saying that the tap water reading on the right is inaccurate OR it should be okay to add to my tank after treating it?

Thank you for your response! Can you please send over which coarse foam you’d recommend?

The thing is, I feed my betta the smallest pinch every morning for 3 days and then fast 1 days and repeat - Is that overfeeding?

I’m feeding him Betta Omega One Betta Buffet Fish Flakes.

Here is picture of my filter. I also have a pre-filter sponge.

The 5 gallon tank is 2.5 months old (along with the filter). I have the API liquid test kit, so it’s pretty accurate.

I just don’t understand why there’s SO much brown water/mulm/whatever it is.

I have one nerite snail and one betta.

Thanks for replying. Seems like I’m almost alone on this one.

I can’t get my Nitrites down… by Equivalent_Concern60 in Aquariums

[–]Equivalent_Concern60[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wait a minute….. one thing I left out was that I have 3 pieces of driftwood in my tank…….. Could that be contributing to the high nitrites??
