Went away for a week and returned to Gilbert looking like this. He's in a 28 litre tank alone. Water temp in set to 25c. Tested the water and no nitrates. For the past 5days I've been changing his water daily and adding aquarium salt because I first thought it was fin rot but now I'm not so sure as there has been no change to him at all. He's still eating and moving well. Isn't spending too much time on the bottom of the tank, nor at the top. I'm well and truly stumped. I've only had him for about 2 months so I don't think its age related... Help?!
it probley means that your betta is sick. Look up on websites to see if you can diagnose your betta with any sickness. I realize my data was sick after he died so look sicknesses up fast. Hope this helps.
I just got my male betta and guppies.....The person that sold the guppies told me they would be fine together.After a few hours I checked on them and my 1 guppy had part of his tail gone.. So I put the betta in another tank....Can someone tell me why he did attack the guppy?????? I'm kinda new to the hole betta thing..
If it is a male betta, then he'll begin making a bubble nest at the top of his tank. It looks like someone poured soap inside it, but it's not soap, it's just your betta letting you know that he's happy and ready to mate.
You can't. Only a trained professional can diagnose.

A betta is a fish of the species Betta, especially Betta splendens, commonly known as the Siamese fighting fish.
Doctors perform diagnoses all the time.
From a female Betta. Then the male Betta fertilizes them when they breed together.
A betta fish laying on its side at the bottom of the fishbowl could indicate illness or stress. It may be suffering from a swim bladder issue, which affects its buoyancy. Immediate attention from a vet or a specialist in fish care is recommended to diagnose and treat the problem.

A betta can eat any betta food regardless of the manufacturer; they typically market it as Betta Bites.
