Betta Fish Died Randomly
Hi guys long time lurker made an account to post.
Betta fish died randomly. Do betta fish sometimes just randomly die. I feel that buying a fish at walmart can or could be a bad idea because i heard that sometimes they don t clean out the tanks properly and leave dead fish etc in there rather than taking them out. Betta was in a 2 gal tank with filter and heater with water temp at 80.
That means following the inch per gallon rule you need 48 gallons for 12 bettas. Stop moving and eating and only float on top of the water. Sunday morning and he died monday afternoon have you started treating your fish.
I m very sorry about your loss. Last night before i went to bed i checked on my fish as i always do i love the colorful betta community and watched my crowntail male betta just swim around strutting his beautiful mix of crimson red overall body color with strands of shiney purple and. While you think your betta may have died suddenly in fact he could have been dying over a period of time without you realizing.
Do betta fish sometimes just randomly die. Put him into a 5 gallon hospital filter cycled heated tank. Does anyone have an explanation.
My male betta fish ricky he died just now after i had him for 3 years and i didn t know what went wrong but i feel that he died of an old age but i know that isn t one of the reasons why. From what i understand you had 12 female bettas right. On average bettas in captivity live to 3 5 years once you remove the extremely high premature death rate due to poor husbandry shipping pet store conditions and due to ignorance of many betta buyers.
Does your fish have any history of. Plus adding the length of the cories would make more. When did you start noticing the symptoms.
