not new to fish keeping but new to bettas, ive done a lot of research already about diseases but i couldnt tell if my new betta is sick. should i be worried about the white part on the underside of his head? the iridescent part on his gills, and the black spots in his body? he is in a quarantine tank right now but ill be moving him to a 7.5 gal.
