So my Betta was completely fine, I got home and found him like this. Few days before he had a small infection on the eye, I treated it with „Arka Betta Care“ and it got better, but now he cramps like that, is curved and has a small fluffy cloud on his back.
He’s really active.
I already did a water change and reduced the light.
I don’t have medicine at home and can’t order something bc of Christmas, I have a pet store about an hour away, any suggestions?
Guys I need your help!

This is how he looks normally
It’s hard to see the fluffy cloud on his back that you mentioned. It sounds like it could possibly be fungus though. Make sure the water is very clean and probably get a medicine…if you can get something that treats fungal and bacterial infections that might help. A salt bath is a possibility in the meantime. Don’t add salt to the main tank though. You can find instructions online for dosing and treating that way. Be careful not to overdo it or you could make him worse. Cheers
What’s his tank temp like? I’ve had a betta clamp before because he didn’t have a heater and as soon as I got one and the water warmed, he was totally fine. That’s the first thing I’d check personally, I’m not sure about if the medicine or his previous condition have an impact but maybe this is a starting place
