This first started after a vacation feeder tablet caused some sort of fungal/bacterial growth in the whole tank. I’ve since treated with aquarium sat, anti fungal and antibacterial medication. Is this medication not strong enough? Is this a tumor?😭

Anything with “fix” in it never actually works, i’m not a huge expert on tumors on bettas but that looks like one, i’m not entirely sure if this can be cured but maybe remove him from that tank and put him in a little temporary tank with a bit of aquarium salt in it. Like i said it might not be curable
also i wouldn’t use those vacation tablets, they fill the water with ammonia.
Dont use anything with fix!! It usually has essential oils in it that actually make fish like bettas worse. Bettas with the metallic/samurai gene are prone to diamond eyes (scales over the eyes causing blindness) and tumors.
Realistically just let him live out his days and keep the water parameters good. Sometimes thats all there is to it unfortunately
