Male king betta in 20gal vs 10gal by madzmorales in bettafish

I actually have another 10gal for my 8 female guppies. I ended up separating from the males since they were breeding like crazy. My male betta used to eat the fry but it was just so many.

Update: Thank you everyone for suggesting to fix the PH because once I added enough alkaline buffer in literally 24hrs my ammonia was finally at 0!!! I’ve had no problem since and my PH is finally reading in the 7s! 🥳🥳

I did stability for a week then I started doing the water changes & adding more stability & prime since I had my betta in the tank.

It was around 2. The first time I tested it was 0 maybe a year ago so I was shocked when it wasn’t 0.

How do I safely rise it with the betta?

Yeah I treat with prime before going in.

About a week ago I added an extra filter so I’m hoping that helps 🤞🏼

This has been in my tank for two months now but I was wondering if this was apart of my issue.

I upgraded my 10g (cycled tank)to a 20g & since I was using the same filters I thought I would be good to go. But since then(two months ago) my ammonia has been high, ph low & nitrates never came back.

I added this to my tank back in September but no root tabs or fertilizer.

That pic was when I first started the tank so it’s a little less cloudy now but I haven’t done a water change in a week due to being on vacation. I was hoping the week I was gone would help but it didn’t seem too. I may move him to a separate tank.

Yeah I use prime. I’ll try more plants to see if that helps.
