Does my betta have dropsy?
Hey guys
I'm pretty new to fish keeping and this is my first betta mochi
He has been lethargic and just laying on the bottom of his tank and I am pretty worried.
• Tank size: 54liter
• Heater and filter? (yes/no): yes and yes
• Tank temperature: 29°C
• Parameters in numbers and how you got them:
0 ammonia 0 nitrite 10 nitrate
Drop test from jbl
• How long have you had the tank? How long have you had your fish?: he has been 9n this tank for 3weeks and the tank 10weeks with already circled media from the fish store
• How often are water changes? How much do you take out per change? What is your process?:
Every week 30%
• Any tankmates? If so, please list with how many of each: no tank mates but he has been in a bigger tank before with corydoras but not since he's been in this one
• What do you feed and how much:
I mostly feed frozen food last week he got some insect bites and in hindsight I definitely overfed sometimes which I now know not to do
• Decorations and plants in the tank:
Only driftwood and real plants
Right know he is in a separate container and I'm doing a saltbath with api aquarium salt
I also dosed his tank with esha 2000 yesterday.
I don't know what else to do and I'm going on holiday in a week
Pls help
