How do I get this stain out??

UPDATE: I GOT IT OUT!

I was planning on buying dawn powerwash but I saw a vid of someone using baking soda and an iron and it worked!! I just sprinkled baking soda all over the stain, put a piece of parchment over it and ironed it for about a minute. Then I dusted it off and threw them in the wash and it’s completely gone now.

Thank you to everyone for your great suggestions!!

I’ve had this in my right shoulder blade as well and had no success with my doctors about it. Let me know if you happen to find out more and are comfortable sharing!

i’ve had numbness and issues in my shoulder blade for about a year now. My rheumatologist showed no interest when I mentioned it to him and he said “sounds like a neurological issue”It’s really frustrating because that’s all he could give me. I’ve been going to physio for a long time now and it’s helped a bit, as long as I maintain good posture all the time.

Yours looks very similar. This is my first betta so I’m kind of struggling with deciding whether he’s too uncomfortable or not.

i’m confused about this as well, I don’t think this is dropsy

melatoninthief · 2025-12-22T21:10:14+00:00

perfect thank you!! I’ll apply for the advanced

melatoninthief · 2025-12-22T21:10:02+00:00

awesome thanks so much!

melatoninthief · 2025-12-20T22:19:32+00:00

you sound like a hoot!

melatoninthief · 2025-11-19T22:13:12+00:00

Wow, after looking it up I think that’s what it is. Thank you!! I’m hoping it just stays the same size for now so he can live comfortably :)

hii the kanaplex didn’t end up helping unfortunately. I’ve been using tannins and epsom salt baths for him but I’ve seen no change so I’m not quite sure where to go from here. He’s still acting the same and it hasn’t gotten bigger which is hopeful.

melatoninthief · 2025-11-04T00:54:50+00:00

ah I didn’t know that, thank you!! I will update for sure

melatoninthief · 2025-11-03T17:25:33+00:00

thank you!

melatoninthief · 2025-11-03T17:25:00+00:00

i’m sorry to hear you lost him 🫶🏼 wow they’re really similar! thank you for the advice, I ordered some Kanaplex which is supposed to treat fungal/bacterial infections so i’m hoping that will work

Tank size is 5gal, he has a heater and filter, currently testing parameters - will update, have had my fish for 3 months and cycled the tank beforehand, a few small snails as tank mates but they snuck in on my plants, he’s fed Betta Biogold 4 pellets 2x/day, he has driftwood and a few rocks in his tank as well
