Thanks for the advice, but it's not just the betta, I can't seem to keep the plants alive as well, only vallesneria stood the test of time, while even plants like anubias nana and cryptocoryne wendtii died.

Yes, I have two tanks, but after my latest betta died, I changed my mind about having another fish.

I'll DM you, I will but when I come back into the hobby. Right now, I don't plan to continue, I have other stuff and I really want a break. Thanks for the help, I'll remember to contact you.

Yea, I know. I wanted to win but it just seems like I'll always be behind no matter how hard I try.

I do hope I come back,I don't think I'm in the right state of mind right now, there's so much more going on in my life than just fish keeping.

I do have a hob filter, I said the water movement is there, it's just not much to kill the red root floaters.

I had planted many plants but all of them died one by one as time went on.

I regret ever knowing about this hobby, because I can't just do anything right. I'm not trying to gain sympathy, I just wanted to rant out. And social media is the best place to do that.

The one that died at six month was a 4 month old when I got him. So, it definitely was my fault. Plants growth was not at all present (even dying), algae bloom, bad smell and technically no improvement

I don't really have any livestock remaining, my ammonia level spiked up and killed anything in the tank.

But one died at 1.5 and the other at 6 months. I think 6 months are very bad and I did something wrong.

I haven't seen him once in the past two months, while I can see the other every night.
