So its been a week since i did a water change, around 25%-50% I'd say and my tank is about 15 gallons. My betta, Johan still seems very lethargic and is breathing very rapidly. I've removed the rest of the snail shells that I could reach in hopes that wont increase the hardness of the water anymore. I checked the GH earlier and its still pretty high despite when after i did the water change, it went down. The first picture is the water parameters from earlier today, just a few minutes ago from me posting this. The colours look dull because its already dried up. The next 2 pictures are Johan. Its from last week but he's still in the same condition, only coming up to the surface very momentarily only to swim back down and lay down there while he breathes heavily. He also barely eats which makes me even more concerned. I'm thinking about getting dried blood worms and feeding it to him directly so he wont starve to death but then again, I'm unsure if that'll he ill be willing to eat. I'm unsure of doing another water change, mostly because I don't want to disrupt any balances I've already had in my tank. I don't know what I should do or if Johan will be okay. Any help is much appreciated
