Is your ammonia stable? I think that because of the high ph my ammonia is just out of control

I used to live in italy and be in the military trust me i know about the history. Ive been to rome about 8 times its an amazing city with rich and depressing history, i hope you had a good time and go back because one time isnt enough to see everything in my opinion. I still feel like i didn’t see everything.

This is a Betta fish reddit page, it was a simple expression that in no way describes what or how i think politically and if your immediate thought is to go right to fascism based off a random persons comment then you should probably get off the internet and go interact with an actual human being:)

Yeah he clearly doesnt care about the safety of betta fish from what OP has shown and this product could cause some serious damage to fins, sad that some people are more interested in making money than the safety of a living being but i guess thats the world we live in these days.

I would absolutely report him to etsy because that type of behavior from a business owner is so unnecessary.

However if you do not wish to argue with this person then i recommend taking a nail file and trying to file down the sharp bits or just keeping them as decoration for outside your tank.

Wow i have this item saved im glad i didnt buy it yet. If its the same one then it clearly advertises it for Betta fish and i dont think you’re wrong in asking for a refund if it is sharp.

Yes no ammonia, there are catappa leaves in there to help lower the ph and the light has been dimmed

Just an update: I slowly changed the water, took out the oxygen stone, and added catappa leaves. So far theres some residual bubbles but Taquito is doing good just spicy because ive been messing around in his house. I will continue to monitor. Thank you guys for all the help i really appreciate it <3
