I would suggest soaking his food in seachems garlic guard add some floating plants like water lettuce or Amazonian frogbit to give him some shade so he feels more secure I would also try feeding him frozen blood worms

Thank you so much! I know you're just one opinion, but at the end of the day, does he look sick to you? Is there some kind of sickness on his body that I'm missing? 

[betta fish will not eat but does not appear sick]

hello there, i was wondering if i could get some help with a betta who will not eat. his paramters are 0 0 5, his tank is heated and filtered, and he's full of live plants. he stopped eating after i got this new light that was a little too bright and the tank had an algae bloom. the algae is mostly gone but he still will not eat!

i tried topfin betta bits and omega one pellets. he ate some frozen brine shrimp but obviously i cant feed him that every day. i tried rubbing some pellets on a clove of garlic and he definitely ate a little more but eventually turned his nose up at that too. he doesnt look sick but what do i know right? its been a week of this struggle and nothings working
