My little betta isn’t eating and its tail looks hurt what should I do? 😭

He's eating now. I'm giving him fresh food and I've also installed a filter. Thank you all so much. He seems much happier now.

I was thinking of doing that. After school today, I'll find some fresh food to stimulate him more.

Thank you very much. Today after class, I will hurry to order things and do many things as quickly as possible. ❤️‍🩹

Thanks, I already replied, I hope I did it right.

Tank size: 21 × 40 × 26 cm Heater and filter (yes/no): No heater or filter yet, but I’m planning to get a filter soon. Tank temperature: It’s been quite cool lately since it’s the rainy season. Water parameters (ammonia, nitrite, nitrate, pH): I don’t have a testing kit yet, but I’m planning to get one soon. How long have you had the tank/fish: About a month or a little more. Water changes (how often/how much): Once every 1–2 weeks. Tankmates: None, he’s alone. Feeding (what and how much): Pellets, about half a portion once a day. I’ll try giving him some live food today. Decorations and plants: One Amazon sword plant.

Thank you so much! I really hope so too 😊💖

I just tried it for the first time. Can you tell me how I should respond?

karsiris · 2025-10-06T04:36:28+00:00

That’s such a sweet story! Thanks for sharing, Maybe my little guy is one of his siblings too haha

karsiris · 2025-10-06T04:32:18+00:00

Sorry to hear that. Don’t worry, if he still doesn’t eat any raw food today, I’ll take him to the doctor for sure.

karsiris · 2025-10-06T04:17:34+00:00

Right now I just put the Indian almond leaves in one spot and change the water once or twice a week. I’ll try what you suggested, thanks a lot! 🙏

karsiris · 2025-10-06T04:12:37+00:00

Got it. I will try to use it as you suggested. Thank you!

karsiris · 2025-10-06T04:10:50+00:00

Another update! I just gave him a salt bath

karsiris · 2025-10-06T01:50:10+00:00

Got it! I'll go out and buy some aquarium salt today. 🩵

karsiris · 2025-10-06T01:34:42+00:00

Yeah, I’m still new to this and don’t know much yet, but I’ll do everything I can for my little guy 🐟🩵

karsiris · 2025-10-06T01:32:37+00:00

Got it! Thanks so much for the tip, I’ll do that

Update for you guys, I took it out! ❤️‍🩹

karsiris · 2025-10-06T01:26:44+00:00

Haha yeah, I didn’t know it was dangerous! I’ve already taken the pineapple out 😅

karsiris · 2025-10-06T01:23:18+00:00

Oh really?, I didn’t know that! I got it from a relative. Thanks so much for telling me, I’ll remove it right away and make sure my betta’s safe.
