lighting13 Posted April 28 Share Posted April 28 (edited) I'm not sure if this is just a open wound but the only new thing I added was a mystery snail to tank and the 24 hrs later I see this wound . I'm not sure if maybe he cut himself or infections from snail. My other betta has a small red spot and my 3rd is fine. Help please . He is eating and swimming Still. I'm treating with nelafix Edited April 28 by lighting13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm treating with nelafix Ow, that looks like it hurt, @lighting13, I see artificial plants in the tank, are there any sharp pieces of decor/plant in the tank, might be he just got injured from something sharp. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guupy42 Posted April 29 Share Posted April 29 I don't keep Betta fish, but I have had a guppy with something similar. I later found out that it was an ulcer with a fungal infection, so look for signs of those. As for the treatment and symptoms, I found this detailed article that may help with Betta ulcers. It might or might not be that kind of injury for sure, but it is just another possible idea. https://www.bettafishfacts.org/ulcer-on-betta-fish-causes-treatments/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
