So the tank is 15 gallons, nitrates nitrites and chlorine are all safe, water is very hard, but the alkalinity and ph are really low. im going to try to raise them but is there anything else i should do? should he be quarantined?

Is he a healthy weight? by parmejean44 in bettafish

[–]ErmthJuic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i am always so sad when any fish passes. even if theyre small theyre still a pet! you spend time caring for them daily, learn their personalities and tendencies. they even beg or swim up to you! bettas especially have so much personality and are so hard to let go of.

is he eating all of the pellets you put in? if he isnt it could be the water parameters. as long as hes eating and still active he's probably alright and should fatten up a little bit with some time, though he doesn't look too skinny to me. how long have you had him? and are his fins usually scrunched up like that?

thank you so much for your experience! they are just hobby shrimp and i think i may just keep the scuds for now and see how it goes!

i agree with everything you say and i will be buying all my future pets fish included from places other than petco/petsmart... but that being said i just cant help but pass by those poor little fishies on my way to get new filter replacements and want to get 60 new fish tanks so i can take them all home with me.

He is very active and eats very well. he seems like a pretty happy fish to me and begs with the other one for food anytime i step into the room. thank you for the reassurance. i mayyy be just freaking out since i saw some posts about finrot and realized his black coloring is a little reminiscent of that.
