  1. I will definitely look into them
  2. Oh boy, guess I'll have to do some research and see which I can stand lol thank you!
  3. Thank you for the linked recommendations! I hope he perks up!
  4. Oh boy, do I have to touch it beyond putting it in the tank? Lol
  5. Heater is another thing I already knew to get thankfully, arrives tomorrow. Thank you for plant identification, there were multiple ones and he was only surviving one with it so I was worried it wasn't good for him. I left the roots on- should I have broken them off?
  6. They were also clustered together on my counter so I think that might have stressed him too.
  7. Thank you for informative response and I've actually got almond leaves on the way (feels like a win)! I hope you're right- he just looked the saddest out of the bunch.
  8. That's the one thing I went in knowing at least lol thank you so much for suggestions. Best guess, do you think he can recover?
  9. Thank you! Best guess from picture do you think he can recover?
  10. Thank you for your responses, very helpful and reassuring. There was what I'm assuming was a lot of poop and leftover food mixed in with the roots and glass pebbles- still put them in without rinsing? Is there anything you recommend I add or change? Other than tank size?
  11. Tank was set up yesterday and I was hoping to add Betta before the weekend. Substrate is just black aquarium gravel. Filter was part of 5 gallon tank kit: Top Fin Silentstream 10 Power Filter with cartridge instruction Manual Bright white led in hood Just a floating betta log atm for decoration I put plant that was in vase, in the new tank but idk what it was (recommended by PetSmart associate). Water testing kit hasn't arrived so I don't have values for tank or vase. Water conditioner: Zoo Med Betta H2O Aquarium Water Conditioner
  12. Hi! I'm a science teacher that has taken on another teacher's discarded Betta. Backstory: The fish were originally given as gifts years ago, in vases with various plants for filtration. At the start of the shutdown, all of the fish were moved to my class because I had sinks and tables. Fast forward 14 months and only 4 are still alive. I have found homes with students for 3/4. The fourth looks very sickly and so I'm trying to bring him back to his former glory myself (to avoid traumatizing a student). With a little Googling and PetSmart advice, I am trying to prepare a 5 gallon tank for my Betta. I need serious help and guidance. Where do I even start? Pictures include new tank, close up from 5 months ago, close up today with plant moved to new tank.
