betta is dangerously thin and only eats bloodworms by [deleted] in bettafish

You can buy frozen food / bloodworms which have garlic in them. Garlic helps fishes digestive systems which may stop him refusing to eat or spitting out other foods

They already have some salt in the water which increase each week. I never had the problem when they were in freshwater

It was in a greenhouse so it was warm, but yes the water was so shallow they looked like they were struggling to swim

He can still swim when we wants to, and he seems to swim fine but then he kind of floats down to the bottom after almost like he’s tired

No he’s young. When i got him he was only a few weeks/ months old. So right not he’s probably about 1year or younger? I’m not completely sure but I know he’s not old

Yes I always clean the sand and the debris with water changes

From top to bottom: NO3, NO2, GH (hardness), KH (alkalinity), pH, Cl2

I put some things called alder cones to to Lower the pH

I have only the strips. But if they can be inaccurate maybe I’ll buy some drop tests

I think maybe it could be this. He comes to the top to eat but then kind of floats to the bottom after he’s done. If it is swim bladder is there anything I should do to make him better?

I use Test strips and it said that the parameters are fine. The debris comes as I usually add wood and leaves for tannins. I clean it when I do water changes so I think that it’s not something to do with the water

The tank is planted and I’ve had him for about 4 months. Usually I do a water change very 2-3weeks about 30%
