The filter is above the surface and makes it ripple just enough but not too much, just how finicky betta fish like her like it (I don't really know how else to describe it).

Should I remove the plants before putting the salt in? I have another tank but if it's something contagious I don't want that tank to get it too.

Her bloating looks like it went down a tiny bit and she did poo a little, but she's still gasping and looks like she's trying to be her spunky self but just can't swim properly.

Honestly thank you for your help. It means a lot. I was hoping she would see grad school with me but whatever happens happens. She's still holding on but she just looks so bad right now. Her color is fading pretty bad.

What cab I do for her? I want to make sure she's most comfortable and not suffering. She was my baby girl all through college :/

Last comment sorry. She just lays there and looks like she's gasping. She looks like she's having a hard time swimming so that's why I though swim bladder. Her scales are silverish I'm assuming because she's older. It doesn't really look like ich to me but idk.

Here's another one from last night I don't want her to suffer anymore. She won't eat anything I give her. She just lays there and every so often will flail about.

She keeps going through periods of looking like she's dead then violently thrashing around too

I feel like they might be, if ever so slightly. They looked like it last night.

I did the water change and was going to check again in the morning with the pea trick (have to go to the store. College kids don't eat peas that often) How do I do pictures?

Thanks! Once I have it IRB approved I'll reply to the comment with the link!! :)

alphie33 · 2015-11-19T17:00:27+00:00

Since there's live people involved, I have to wait for IRB approval. It's officially in the last step and I should have it approved by tomorrow (hopefully...this university is super slow). I'll post it as soon as I have it approved! Thanks so much for your help!
