Hi. I know it's been a while since I've been on here but I come seeking help with my betta Nero because google doesn't seem to be helping. For about two weeks now I've been battling popeye with him, he is currently quarantined in a heated and filtered 3.5 gallon tank with nothing in it besides a betta leaf and I've been doing frequent water changes and dosing his water with aquarium salt and bettafix. I've been feeding him a couple of pellets every other day, being careful to not over feed him (he usually gets bloated if I feed him every day, so that's why its every other). Thankfully his popeye is almost completely back to normal now !! I was considering moving him back to his normal tank but another problem has arose that I don't know what to do to fix. This just happened today.. I just got in my room to see him nearly floating on his side and there seems to be an internal bump along his side that wasn't there before previously (I wish I could have taken better pictures but he just moved to a side of the tank where I can't get a picture). The bump is mainly on one side(pictured), but it's a little visible on the other side too. I'm going to do a water change and see if I can't get some antibiotics but I was wondering if any of you had some advice? Thank you in advance.. I really wanna save this guy. If you have any questions let me know and I'll do my best to answer.

I put my finger too close to the tank and that was OFFENSIVE.

I have a lot to learn about trying to photograph fish.
Tried taking some shots on my new phone while I was waiting for my breakfast to cook. I had only just fed him his breakfast, the hyper little shit wouldnt sit still for very long if at all
I do love my little boy.

got a betta fish?? do you love ur betta fish??? DO U WANNA HUG UR BETTA FISH BUT CAN’T BC IT’S A FISH??? i’m taking orders for custom betta fish plushies for 30$ on etsy! or you can message me here on tumblr and i can take it through paypal (etsy is preferred though) currently i’m only shipping within the US, but that’ll change eventually. when requesting, please give me the clearest pictures possible of your fish, or just a description of what you’d like. i can do themed ones, pride ones, anything really! i can even add wings and horns if you want! these guys measure usually between 10-12″ inches in length & height, but i’m trying to keep them as consistent as possible. they may vary depending on the fin type mostly. i can do almost any color and shape! it may not be 100% accurate but i will certainly try. processing time will be roughly 5-10 days to be made and shipped. i will also soon be adding smaller sized bettas to be attached to backpacks and purses for 15$, so keep an eye out if you’re interested in that instead! thanks for checking this post out, and i’d really appreciate some signal boosts if possible! :D

Remember: 2.5+ gallons a proper heater clean water lots of hiding places. That betta you buy in the store is the equivilent of comparing a chihuahua to a wolf. and isn’t this
Tumblr media
prettier than this?

I think everyone can spare a measely two and a half gallons.
