  1. 1 Gallon Tank My betta fish

    The terrible grammar tells me that this is just a rather young child trying to get help, unless you're wanting to suggest it's a young child trying to troll. Even then, I feel like it would be worded not better but differently. Just going off of other troll posts, you know? Either way, this...
  2. 2 week long fin rot and swim bladder.. Am i doing something wrong?

    Thank you. Im feding him bug bites, just a tiny pinch twice a day. I soak the later one in some vitachem. The swim bladder is most definitely caused by injury. As I said, I stopped doing the whole taking him out for water changes when that happened, and i initially did it because I was scared...
  3. 2 week long fin rot and swim bladder.. Am i doing something wrong?

    I've been trying to do water changes as much as I can, it's kind of hard now days though since I can't use my sink water and the local stores dont have their usual 1 gallon jugs as much.. I gave him a mini heart attack when I put him into a cup so that I could try to clean the gravel.. Bad idea...
  4. 2 week long fin rot and swim bladder.. Am i doing something wrong?

    Hello again! Looking for some advice from people who are experienced with fin rot and stress/disease induced swim bladder, and possible gill flukes. For a little backstory about a month and a half-2 months ago I accidentally gave the poor guy some shock, I basically just spooked him into...
  5. My fish is floating on its side on the surface?!

    He does look a bit bloated, sometimes this happens even when you don't feed him too much. I'd try a pea like others said, but only once, they don't eat plants naturally and it could do more damage if fed multiple times over the course of a couple of days. Make sure it's organic- and that you...
  6. What are you listening to right now?

    I know for a fact that I'm not going to find much of any fans of what I'm going to list, but I love music, I just can't help it! I like quite a few different artist, I'd say my most listed to would be Keshi, Hojean, BTS, Mother Mother, 88rising, suggi, Declan McKenna, Cavetown, Joji, DEAN, Troye...
  7. Betta has no appetite, inactive and hiding more since a water change and slight rescape.

    As others have stated, he's most likely stressed, but going off of your description there's nothing that I'd worry about (I've seen other fish have worst reactions to change of scenery). Make sure to not bug him too much and turn off the light earlier, or maybe even for a full day (it helps them...
  8. Fish is shaking, any experience?

    Thank you, I've been checking my temp frequently, it's been at 78 average. I always rinse my hands before doing anything with the tank, and I don't recall spraying anything near it as I try to avoid anything like that.. I may have rather weak hands but I always try to shake as hard as I can...
  9. What draws you to the hobby?

  10. Fish is shaking, any experience?

    Sorry for the late reply! He's more sort of vibrating, kind of like an animal shaking out of fear or coldness. I don't understand why you think the tank still being in cycle could be the issue.. it's been established for 7 months. Even if I were doing a fish-in cycle, it would've been cycled by...
  11. Fish is shaking, any experience?

    Second attempt at getting help, thought I'd format it better. Tank What is the water volume of the tank? 10 gallons How long has the tank been running? At least 7 months Does it have a filter? Yes, HOB Does it have a heater? Yes What is the water temperature? 79 What is the entire stocking of...
  12. 1 Gallon Tank My betta fish

    Please do research before getting a new pet, it will save your little friend's life. As others have stated, you should never put a male and female betta in the same tank unless you're experienced and plan on breeding them, and also that they need much more than 1 gallon. As above, 5 gallons each...
  13. Is my apontegeton going to flower? -picture

    I've had things that look like that quite a few times, but they've always turned out to be just shorter leaves with long stems..
  14. Betta is.. shaking? Paralyzed?

    I forgot about that, I'll reply to this message soon with it completed^^ I took him out because when I cleaned the gravel with my last betta, I didn't and he completely similarly freaked out.. except he only lasted 3 days :/ so I thought taking him out would be better- of course, I know now I...
  15. Betta is.. shaking? Paralyzed?

    10 gallons. The incident was when I removed him from the tank so that I could deep clean the gravel w/o causing harm (I'd assume he wouldn't want to suck any of that gunk up) and stress, and when I was finished and attempted to put him back in, he started freaking out. The usual signs of shock-...
  16. Betta is.. shaking? Paralyzed?

    A few months ago, my betta suffered stress-induced shock and hasn't been the same since.. most of the time he'd be fine, but some days he'll have swim bladder, but then will be back to normal a day after. The shock caused some fin rot too, and his fins still haven't fully recovered even though...
  17. Do you remove your fish when cleaning/water change?

    Nope! It may seem scary for them, but neither of my bettas really freak out at all. They notice something's going on but they just swim around casually. Taking them out will actually stress them out far more (from my experience..).
  18. Small pink worm munching away on some snail poo

    Oh ew lol they look nasty. They don't seem to live in water as larvae, so probably not them. Either way, hope that whatever you have isn't dangerous.. probably just a tasty snack for fish.

    Have you seen any small mosquito-like flies in your house?
