Hi is there anywhere that as good pictures and explanations of the different sicknesses our betta can have. I have read about fin rot but am confused if its something else.
Thank you
I don’t know any places like that but I can explain some of the common things
finrot- as you know it looks like the fins are rotting away
hexamita (hole in the head)- fish has tiny holes around their head and the fish usually stop eating and are lethargic
velvet- gold dust all over the fish and acting lethargic. Hard to cure.
bloat- big stomach and sometimes lethargic. Feeding peas or daphnia will help.
dropsy- fish usually sitting at the bottom of the tank lethargic and scales are lifting up also known as pineconing. Pretty Hard to cure but is possible
fungus- fuzzy white patches on the fish or cotton mouth which is white fuzz around their mouth. Very contagious and medication and aquarium salt helps
Ich- white spots on fish and easily treated with medication like ich x or aquarium salt
