Rachel Gallaugher Posted February 26, 2022 Posted February 26, 2022 (edited) Hello! I am seeking help for what could be going on with my betta fish? I noticed it last night (2/25/2022) when i fed him, he ate a little then he darted around and swam to the bottom. Today (2/26/2022) when checking him he again was at the bottom, i did a water test, everything is normal, the tank temp is normal too. he came up briefly and received a few pellets before darting down to the bottom again. later on he was sitting kind of bent so i nudged him and he swam up to the top then quickly sunk back to the bottom again. last tank cleaning was 2/20/2022 and i planned to clean the tank again tomorrow (2/26/2022). all help welcomed, i am attaching pictures of how he is sitting at the bottom. TIA!!! edit to add: nudged him again and he come closer to the front of tank, i noticed this on him (circled in purple) also sorry for photo quality, my camera was struggling to focus. Edited February 26, 2022 by Rachel Gallaugher New photo update for help
Colu Posted February 26, 2022 Posted February 26, 2022 Possible bacterial infection I would treat with kanaplex or maracyn2 when fish are lethargic it's usually because they are putting all of their energy in to fighting an infection 1
