    I did cut the parts off that were in the weight that they come in (I got them at a LFS) and then planted them. But should I cut off like right under the first node I can see?

    I just got some ludwigia (pretty sure its repens) and 2 stems are already melting from the bottom up very quickly. What's the best way to fix this? I've heard I need a liquid fertilizer, which one should I choose? Here's pictures:

    Also though he seems to be doing much better today, he's a lot more active and this morning he swam right up to the top to get food instead of me having to wait for him to go up for air to feed him. Should I just wait a few more days to see if he keeps improving?

    Yeah, I'm just worried the sponge filter may be too tall for the 2.5 gallon lol, I've heard though that maracyn is snail and live plant safe, if I used that instead of salt would I be able to keep everything in the 5 gallon? And would I have to just dose once and then not change the water for a week? or do I dose and then water change and then dose then water chance etc daily for a week?

    Would I put the heater and (airstone or sponge filter?) in there or just the heater?

    Okay, thanks. Do you think I could move the live plants, snails, and rocks to a 2.5g I have and then leave the fish and the heater and sponge filter in the 5g to do the salt and maracyn?

    Okay thanks. Would I put him in a quarantine tank? Bc I have 2 nerite snails and live plants in there. And could I use an air stone instead of a sponge filter in the quarantine tank? I'd have to put the heater in the quarantine tank

    How would I treat that?

    The copy and paste worked, thanks for that suggestion. And about the green water part, I probably should have instead written that the previous owner told me he didn't really ever to maintenance on the tank like water changes. And also idk if this is normal but in the picture (easier to see in person not on camera) you can kind of see that his gills (I guess the 'beard' part) are black, as well as there is some black underneath his body on his anal fin. I read about that and it seemed like it's either normal or it's caused by poor water quality?

    Great, thank you.

    I rescued this little guy last night from someone who wasn't caring for him properly. He said he didn't do much maintenence for the tank and I saw the water and it was GREEN, and there wasn't a heater in his previous tank. He's very lethargic. He spends most of his time on the bottom of the tank (sometimes on his side not moving but breathing heavily), and when he swims it's mostly must to go up for air, then he swims back down to the bottom. He didn't eat last night but ate two small pellets this morning. I replaced the filter with a sponge filter, put in a heater at 79º, and took 1 gallon from an established tank with a very healthy betta, and did 4 gallons of new water. What should I do? It's saying that the photo upload is failing, but hes a white halfmoon male betta. He currently looks more pink than white, and his tail is much shorter in some sections, with long (maybe the bones of his tail?) sticking out.
