Betta fish not moving. And also one that could prove to be worrisome. Betta fish not moving could be due to an illness. If you notice this happening then you should check the temperature and make sure it hasn t dropped.
Hi my male betta very suddenly stopped moving will not respond to food or anything but was still breathing. Hi firstly im new to the whole having a fish thing. He is eating freeze dried blood worms.
Bettas can t close their eyes so it ll look like they re still awake. He s always been super happy making bubble nests swimming around a lot so this is extremely sudden and confusing. Not moving when you approach their aquarium however would be an odd occurrence with the betta fish.
The first thing to do is slowly adjust the water temperature to 80f 26cdegrees as this is the preferred temperature for bettas. He has a heater and a filter. If so they re probably just sleeping.
Your betta is sick. Betta is sitting at the top corner of tank. Why a betta fish can not live in a bowl or tank smaller than 2 5 gallons.
Take a look at their gills. The best water temperature for betta fish is between 76 and 80 f 24 5 and 26 5 c. Hopefully your fish is breathing alright.
