What filter is on your hospital tank ? Put some of that media in the tank or else squeeze the sponges from the hospital tank into the main tank. That will help establish some more bacteria in the tank and hopefully help speed up the process.

Day 50 of my latest planted tank. Growing slowly but steady

Did my first water change on my new plant set up

My new planted tank I just setup yesterday. Should start to look good in a month or two. Here is a list of all the plants used in the build. Amazon Aquascape 100cm l x 40cm w x 45cm h Plant List Echinodorus sp. 'Red Diamond' Echinodorus sp. 'Red Flame's' Echinodorus sp. 'Ozelot Green...

I read your entire post mate, that doesn't change the fact fish still need a cycled aquarium and a "hospital tank" isn't a food container with a half an inch of water in it. Bettas DO NOT ONLY BREATH AIR THE TAKE OXYGEN OUT OF THE WATER HE DOESNT HAVE TO GET TO THE SURFACE!

You need a proper Betta setup that is the issue.you need a filter for these fish and 1 gallon is not a fish tank. The fish is dieing due to inadequate set up and dirt water. It isn't the fault of a disease You also need to cycle an aquarium before adding fish

Yes they mean that it isn't good for fish because it doesn't offer many hiding places for some fish that need them. If you use appropriate fish it's absolutely fine. Its a lot better than neon pink gravel and aluminous jelly fish ornaments lol (no offense if that's some people's taste I'm a...

Generally it is good to get at least 6 of the same Cory species but they will get along with other species.

Oh ok I thought you moved her in with other fish??? "don't think she is lonely because I've put her with just one of the others and they still chase her around" is there fish in the 20 long chasing her around? If no other fish how long has she been in there without eating ?? She might still be...

Great ! They tend to be fine when they are smaller as they grow they will get a bit more aggressive and competitive.

Yea I would say your levels are fine (just keep an eye on parameters) , but not ideal in the sense that Cory's like to be kept with at least six of there kind and also the tiger barbs can get quite nippy kept in small groups at least six of them should be kept together as well .

It is possible to keep other fish with Bettas. Might be a little difficult in that size tank though (the mail will probably claim most of the territory ). Also Bettas have different personalities some have no interest in other fish and some hate other fish. So all depends on the Betta but I...

I would take out the other fish that is still shoving her around. She is not competing with them for food so has probably given up. Take the others out to see if she will come out and eat. You or I probably wouldnt be rushing to the dinner table if we had to fight a few people to get a few...

No problem at all ! Good idea with the slow change. Normally the store you bought them from will take them back if you buy some new fish . You just buy bacteria in a bottle from local pet shop and add recommend dose. Yes that's exactly it, you fish are producing more waste than the filter can...

First and second is a hygrophilia (Thailand variety I believe) 3rd anubias and 4th looks possible like a cryptocoryne species ( if you post a picture of the roots of the plant be easier to tell. All very easy to take care of

Most fish will jump out of a 2.5 gallon it's just way to small. Not a fish tank size

I wouldn't bother with the pH down, goldfish love a high pH and will thrive in it along with your snails. Goldfish are basically carp which is a high pH fish. It is very hard to have consistent water parameters using things like pH down as you can never really make the same batch of water every...

Yes people always say raise the temp, this is one of those things that has been passed around for years. You have a fish that is currently fighting disease and to raise the temp is only going to stress them out more causing it to be more week. Bettas in particular dont like hot water and you...

I don't think it's clear that it's the cause, could definitely be one reason. I haven't seen any mention of water parameters. Have you tested your water with a test kit? This will help eliminate the causes. I'd say the filter isn't doing its job and could be allowing all the waste to build up in...
