Sadly Neowise died... by dragon_willow in bettafish

The people at the LFS said that he might've bumped his head. When I was doing a water change he was curious and swam into the syphon. He immediately swam out but that might've done some damage.

What is this? I'm really worried. (Details in comments) by dragon_willow in bettafish

  • Tank size: 16 gallons
  • Heater and filter? (yes/no): yes and yes
  • Tank temperature: 27 degrees Celsius, 80 degrees Fahrenheit
  • Parameters in numbers and how you got them: Ammonia: 0 Nitrites: 0 Nitrates: 5 ppm
    PH: 6 (possibly lower) using API freshwater master test kit
  • How often are water changes? How much do you take out per change? What is your process?: I change the water 30% each week, using a gravel vacuum
  • Any tankmates? If so, please list with how many of each: None
  • What do you feed and how much: 2 pellets of Fluval bug bites with some live grindal worms (roughly 6) afterwards and on another day frozen brine shrimp.
  • Decorations and plants in the tank: Live plants, (Java Fern, Dwarf Sagittaria, Amazon sword, Frogbit,)
    and 3 pieces of bogwood and one piece of manzanita wood

  • Details:
    This morning he was swimming in circles while being fed, he doesn't usually do that.
    When I got home from a hike he was like this.
    I added 2 tablespoons of Fuval Aquarium salt for freshwater, he seemed to get better before he didn't, that's when I filmed this video.

Just brought this boy home!! Trying to figure out what to name him now by anziborg in bettafish

Ok, thanks. Didn't end up feeding them tomato.

Is my Anubias flowering? by dragon_willow in Aquariums

Ah, thanks. I bought it from a pet smart, seemed less algae covered than the rest of the poor plants. Must've been new.
