Folks,

Me needs help.

AIYO...it's non-stop issues with Le Bleu la.

Today, while luring him to flare with the sun behind me, I saw some stringy, nearly translucent bits hanging from his rays (mostly the one on the top and bottom - but none on the tail). I just changed his water yesterday and increased the ketapang dose because it looked like the ray thinning thing wasn't improving.

Is it normal to see some stringy transculent "threads" hanging from the rays? (I saw about three sticking from one end of a ray to another end, and another two just flying around loosely on the rays.)

[Btw, can't take a pic because it's too fine for the camera to catch. Sorrwee.]

[UPDATE] He's swimming around with clamped fins! HELP!

er...... time for water change?

I baru buat water change at 1130pm last night.

Something with the water parameters?

temperature fluctuations?

[UPDATE] I changed his water - 6 drops of blackwater extract, 1/4 teaspoon of salt and 1/4 teaspoon of that fungus guard that together with Aquasafe.

The stringy stuff is gone but he still swims around with clamped fins. Why ar? Water parameters have always been the same as before - soft water, slightly acidic. Temperature, sama lor - I use tap water temp.

Hope your betta gets back to normal soon. Today I changed water for my betta and put a little aroma burner in his tank, coz i read that bettas like hiding places, but he doesnt even go near the hole in the burner.


Finally a clear pic of my fish. Taken outdoors before I changed the water.
