This is Fernando. I bought him about a year ago at a Petsmart. He's a half moon betta, and has always been small. With the recent 'end of the school year' stress, I pushed off cleaning his home far too often than not, and resulted in him dulling in color, not eating, and laying at the bottom for...

http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b138/mystique1111/1.jpg I made a collage of the details. History of my betta: I got Blondie from Petco last September. He gets 14 drops of BettaSafe in his 2 gallons of water when changed. He gets 2-3 freezedried bloodworms and about 8 Betta Bio-Gold...

ok...heres the deal. Bought a nice blue male betta from Wal*Mart. Yeah...I know. He looked good. Took him home...put him in a 1gal tank with filter. Put bottled distilled water in the tank. Faucet water here in Arizona, sucks. Had him 3 weeks. Now, this nice male with a nice plume of fins, looks...

Two days ago (sunday) i noticed one of my neons looking lumpy. At closer inspection it looks like there is a air pocket in his abdomen(closer to the tail than head). it looks pretty clear and see-through. he is swimming decently, looks like he wants to eat, but doesnt. He is breathing about 3...

= ^ _ ^ = I have f return. No particular reason for absence . All my pets are ok apart from the fact I lost Moog the Male mouse an escapee on a Thursday night due to my Rabbit =^o^= Schneeballs crasy rocking and tugging antics from within his hutch. Phase 9 of his hutch has now been completed...

HI all, we recently bought a plec, and he/she has developed something on one of its fins (see pics - sorry they are poor, its a pain to photograph). It appears to be only on the one fin affecting around the "joint" area with its body (looks a bit red). It also looks white and cottony. It...

Hi there, My favourite goldfish is suffering from what appears to be finrot so I separated her from my other fish and I'm trying to help her. I'm inexperienced with the whole fish thing so I was hoping someone could direct me. I posted my questions already on Yahoo answers a few times and got a...

I have been giving my chinese algae eater extra salt I fasted him twice gave him a pea and the tetra people told me to give him tetracycline to boost his immune system. But he still has dropsy is there anything else I can do for him? all his scaes are sticking out and have been for a while..

I just got a betta fissh 3 days ago. I havent got him to eat for me at all. He is blowing bubblenests in the tank like he iis happy he just wont eat. Do anyone know what I can do?

Here are some pics of my fish. They have survived a very bad case of white spot and fin rot! They were so bad they only had stubs instead of fins. It was touch and go but thankfully they turned the corner and as you can see they are nice and healthy again! COMET - About 2 years SANTOS -...

I posted last night about a "parasite" in with my betta. Well today he's extremely ill.Having trouble swimming,breathing....everything! What can I do??

A little while back I posted about my betta,Ice,who seemed to have frayed fins for no apparent reason. I ended up moving his tank away from the other fish tank,letting him flare up at his reflection and all the other stuff you guys reccomended (except treating him for fin rot,as I didn't wanna...

I am a little confused... My betta Ice's fins have been appearing to get torn or ripped.He is in a 2 gallon by himeslf and there are no sharp things in the tank.All the years I have had bettas,this has never happened. It isn't fin rot or anything else...he looks and is acting perfectly...

i got two new bettas yesterday. one of them seems to either have fin rot, or be mixed with a crowntail. i honestly cant tell if a fish has tail rot or not. i googled up some pictures and my bettas fins dont look anything like what i googled. his dorsal fin is very straggly. it has long strings...

Well I went shopping this morning at lidl I took the Ridgeback Velocity and Trailer into Beckenham. I popped into the aquatics shop in Beckenham and they have betta's, I did say I may come back later but frankly on my return my trailer was loaded to the brim with shopping and 8 bottles of 2...

I know I've thought my betta had fin rot but not I'm positive its not his coloring. I treated him a while ago with Bettafix and had no success with it at all. I've been cleaning his water once a week 100% and putting stress coat and blackwater extract in there. It's a 10 gallon with a filter...

Can anyone explain what fin rot is or how I can tell it's fin rot? I've been trying to figure out if my little guy has it and so far I think he does but I don't want to treat it until I'm certain. He has black edges on his fins and then it turns clear and then his regular color. I do have salt...
