Betta Update ;)

[shellbell4ever 1,381]

So I thought I would get a few good shots of my Betta Babies last night

Quinn's tumor is still present and weighing him down quite a bit well see how it goes in the next couple of weeks before we leave for Florida and sadly my Miss Penny has becoming a brat with bloat lately seems every time I turn around she's bloated again and bottom sitting then I fast and feed pea's she's good then bam again with the bloat

I plan on having my sister watch them while I am away but she doesn't have the best track record with Betta's too begin with, but is my only option As she will also be keeping an eye on my goldfish as well them I am less worried about though, she only has to come on Sunday and do a 50% w/c and light feed while I'm away

Quinn

Penny

Thanks for looking

Do they livein those begginer betta bowls?

Oh I didn't know Quinn had a tumor! Poor guy!

I had that problem with my female for a while too! She would get bloated and constipated constantly. She would finally poop and there would be a ton of it!! I turned up the heater in her tank and it seemed to help. I also feed her gel food with tons of greens in it and it seems to help a lot. Just make sure to watch for pineconing because that happened with my last female. I thought it was just bloat as usual but it turned out it was pineconing it was just hard to see so I hadn't noticed She ended up passing away from it because she stopped eating the med food.. I just wanted to warn you tho, not trying to scare you!!!!!

They are both so pretty Shell

Jessie they live in tanks. Most people on here keep our betta s in tanks with cycled filters because it is much better for them

[Guest Jessie]

No, i know you need to put bettas in tanks, i meant for herr bettas. They're tanks look like those betta begginer bowls. I was just curuious, because i like ideas on betta tanks and such.

Thanks ladies

Jessie - My Betta's are both in 1.5 gallon Betta Cubes with Heaters and cycled filters Thanks

They get feed a varied diet including NLS pellets, blood worms, and brine shrimp, as well as peas weekly

But the heaters are pre set to 78F sadly so I can not raise the temp

That is how mine was too Shelly so I had to buy a new one that was adjustable. It is ridiculous how hard it is to find a small adjustable heater!!!
