New Here…
![]() |
Hello all! I am a new writer on the betta blog! I am a college student that bought her first fish tank last January. In addition to a rainbow shark and huge black mystery snail, I caught the betta bug and have 4 babies now. I took pictures, but I haven’t uploaded them yet :-(. Indy is dark blue and red, Apollo is off-white (and you can see his organs!!), Tusk is a little all red guy and Nemo is an orange and blackish guy with a gimp dorsal fin. Currently, Apollo is battling fin rot… and the fin rot is winning. I’m attacking it with tri sulfa. I’ll keep you posted. If anyone has a better solution, I’d love to hear it.
Well, the bettas are yawning and saying “it’s time for bed mom! Turn out the light!”.
Goodnight fellow betta bloggers.

Hi Kelly! Welcome to the team! I am also a writer. I have a question, you said that your betta was suffering from fin rot. My betta is too. What do you do about that?

@Carley: Hi! I am working on curing the fin rot with lots of water changes. Sometimes clean water that can fix the problem. So I just make sure his water is super clean. Also, I have used Tri Sulfa tablets, which has stopped the majority of the rot and gotta rid of most the fungus. I am also using very small doses of Melafix, to promote faster healing. So now I am just waiting and using the Melafix and keeping his water clean and hoping I see a change for the better with his fins.
Good luck curing your baby!
