Started noticing my betta in the past month or so developed symptoms of clamped fins. Other than that he's moving around and eating normally. How should I go about treating this?
Things I've done so far :
40% water change, will start doing 25% water changes more frequently if needed
Purchased betta mirror so that he can flare and stretch his fins out for a couple of minutes per day or every couple of days
Following are my tank parameters which seem pretty normal and in good shape :
Tank size:
10 gallons
Heater and filter? (yes/no):
yes
Tank temperature:
79-80°F
Tank Parameters:
Used API Freshwater Master Test Kit
Ammonia: 0 ppm
Nitrite: 0 ppm
Nitrate: 2.5 ppm
How long have you had the tank? How long have you had your fish?:
Had the tank and betta for 8 months
How often are water changes? How much do you take out per change? What is your process?:
Approximately 25% water change every 2 weekS. Should be doing it more often to be honest. I use a gravel siphon every week and scrub the walls about once every 3-4 weeks
Any tankmates? If so, please list with how many of each:
7 Pygmy corys
5 neon tetra
2 nerite snails
3 Amano shrimp
What do you feed and how much:
Tetra BettaMin small pellets. I feed him once per day with 4-5 pellets
