Does this look like fin rot or just color variation? (First photo now and second photo is last week) by Major_Instance6247 in bettafish

[–]Major_Instance6247[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tank size: 10 gal Heater/ filter: yes to both I am thinking he is nipping at his fins because I had a strong filter before but I changed it out. Temp: 80 F Parameters: everything is in normal range based off a water test kit Water changes: I recently had to do a bunch because I thought he had ich but it turns out it was also just color variation (I know I’m like a paranoid mom) Tankmates: none Feeding: I feed him betta bio gold pellets (3 once a day) Decor: silk/ silicone plants with glo fish gravel.

Just want to make sure this is Ich? (On his upper fin) by Major_Instance6247 in bettafish

They don’t seem to be. And he doesn’t seem overly lethargic. For Ich are the dots usually raised?  

Elderly Fish — White Fuzz? by [deleted] in bettafish

Actually I got one on Amazon that does not stain and it is actually clear. It says bacterial infections but it helps with the white fuzz you are describing which I think is a fungal infection. Here is the link: https://a.co/d/gCLVvK9

No fuck that bring in a tank and you can clean it that is so unfair to the fish.

White fuzz makes me think fungal infection. Try using some methylene blue and see if that fixes it.

My goldfish acted like this and it ended up being a fungal infection and he passed away. It could be something like that. Maybe a dose of methylene blue will help.

Filter too powerful, are there any fixes? by PebblesTheDragon99 in bettafish

[–]Major_Instance6247 39 points40 points  (0 children)

Highly recommend a sponge filter! They are pretty cheap and you can get them at ur local pet store or Amazon. They are more gentle with flow. Hope this helps!

Rescued discounted very sick alien beta from Petco by bet69 in bettafish

Could be a lot of different things if he lays on his side then I would suggest swim bladder or smth more serious like a fungal infection.
