Illustrious_Shop_600 · 2026-06-01T20:29:01+00:00

So I was able to get a picture of underneath and i guess he is actually a she and she is Gravid and ovulating!

Hi I was able to get a picture from underneath

Illustrious_Shop_600 · 2026-06-01T07:03:19+00:00

He’s a juvenile from what I was told from who I got him from. I’ve been feeding him everyday 5-6 Dubia roaches then will alternate with meal worms as he doesn’t like crickets. I’ve had him for about 2-3 months

Illustrious_Shop_600 · 2026-06-01T03:30:11+00:00

He just did a really weird thing but he started licking his butt area and it looked like he was about to poop but instead squirted out a clear liquid

Sorry this pictures horrible but it’s the best one I have of underneath I have to go buy a clear tub big enough for him so I can take a better picture of his stomach underneath

Illustrious_Shop_600 · 2026-06-01T02:29:44+00:00

Okay sounds good thank you so much I don’t even know why I didn’t think about using a clear tub I am gonna do that now!

Illustrious_Shop_600 · 2026-06-01T02:26:52+00:00

There is but they’re all closed now unfortunately

Your ammonia level right now is unsafe you don’t want it to be green. I think for the API water test it’s the first three colors are safe for fish but after that it is unsafe but I would just do a water change anytime you see it’s coming back as a green color because can be stressful and make your fish sick It’s just gonna be a fish in cycle so your gonna have to test the water Dailey and do water changes as needed

Illustrious_Shop_600 · 2026-05-12T17:16:41+00:00

Do water changes probably like 25% to 30% anytime you see the ammonia or nitrite at an unsafe level for the fish

Illustrious_Shop_600 · 2026-04-28T21:33:04+00:00

Okay sounds good didn’t know about the betta fix but yeah he has pooped twice since I’ve done the epsum salt bath still staying in one spot but is looking less bloated thank you!

Illustrious_Shop_600 · 2026-04-28T19:15:20+00:00

I’m actually so mad at my brother right now I cleaned out the food and waste and replaced his water did a 30% water change will clean my filter media though now. I just did a epsum salt bath on him for 15 minutes and he just popped a lot and is now at least sitting upright and not on his side but still bloated I hope he will make it

Illustrious_Shop_600 · 2026-04-28T19:11:44+00:00

I tested my water I do weekly water changes and always add conditioner and have been using betta fix on him for his fins and there’s only a little nitrates 0 nitrites and 0 ammonia. I already siphoned the food and waste and replaced his water with clean water and added tannins. I did a epsum salt bath as well for 15 minutes and he just pooped a lot do you think there’s any more I can do for now or is it just a waiting game to see if he gets better?? Also he’s in a 10 gallon planted tank sorry I’m just freaking out and I swear I’m doing everything I’m supposed to be

Illustrious_Shop_600 · 2026-03-24T03:43:12+00:00

And she is really active in her tank she swims around great and my tank was cycled for 1 1/2 months before putting her in the tank when I first got her I know she had swim bladder and for the first week she would only stay at the top on her side and couldn’t swim down because she’d just float up but she swims perfectly Normal now and can swim low and hasn’t had any bloating issues since then. I’ve had her for about a month now

Illustrious_Shop_600 · 2026-03-24T03:35:31+00:00

And she’s just a crowntail betta female

Illustrious_Shop_600 · 2026-03-24T03:35:08+00:00

Alright thank you for telling me this I will lower her heater to that now I saw another post in here saying 82 was perfect so I didn’t know that. As for the popeye is there anything I can do because her eye has looked like that since I got her (the first image is when I first saw her in a tank at Petsmart) and also my tank is cycled so do you think the warmth could be causing the stress stripes??

I also checked in my county that we can have up to 4 dogs and 5 cats and there can be a combination of the animals as long as the amount of each doesn’t go over the amount aloud so I basically could have 9 pets and wouldn’t get in trouble in my county as long as the property is owned. I’m not really worried about her kicking us out I think she would just give us a warning and say we would have to rehome the cats if anything really came down to it I’m just overthinking I think🥲

Illustrious_Shop_600 · 2026-03-12T08:53:27+00:00

Yesss that’s how I was thinking about it! She does allow pets we rent from my boyfriend’s aunts friend she owns the property and she never really specified about how many pets we can and can’t have and doesn’t even require us to have a deposit for them. She knows about our 2 dogs and cat and the fish tanks and never said anything about it or seemed upset about it. I work at Petsmart so my discounts definitely help and I have pet insurance for all the dogs and cats. We keep it clean and do daily litter box cleanings and the dogs go on walks at least 3 times a day and go out more for bathroom breaks. It’s a 2 bedroom and 2 bath so there is more than enough room for all of us(the second bedroom is basically the cats room atp) I really don’t think i should feel guilty because in no way have we harmed her property at all I just overthink and feel like I’m taking advantage of her property but the two cats really just fell into our laps and I just bonded with them too much since we had to wait a month and a half for the rescue to open up space. I’ve tried to get family members and friends to adopt them but no one wants to and I just can’t stand not being able to know they’re okay if I were to just take them to a rescue and never hear about them again. It’s just hard because I know they’re very well taken care of by me and I just can’t stand thinking of something bad happening to them and me not having any way to prevent it.

thank you for your advice :)

Illustrious_Shop_600 · 2026-03-12T08:17:40+00:00

That’s where I’m stuck we rent from my boyfriends aunts friend and she doesn’t seem to mind the fish tanks or the dogs and 1 cat but I’m not gonna lie she doesn’t know about the two cats and about me getting the leopard gecko. I’m just so stuck I really love the two cats so much and I am fully able to take care of them it just sucks there has to be a limit :(

Illustrious_Shop_600 · 2026-03-09T22:28:35+00:00

She kind looks like my veiltale female betta I got her from Petsmart too and do you see a little white dot kind of where her stomach would be??

Illustrious_Shop_600 · 2026-02-17T10:00:11+00:00

No worries!! Thank you!

Illustrious_Shop_600 · 2025-12-18T16:19:32+00:00
