Hello,

I adopted a dying betta at one of the big pet stores, trying to save him. He’d been in the cup they sell them in for 5 months. He was floating upright and on his side and body curled some. I brought him home to a cycled, balanced tank, right temp and parameters. I’ve given him kanaplex and epson salt soaks. He hasn’t eaten in over a week. Nothing is working. I don’t want him suffering. Should I end treatment? He’s just floating at the surface, with a tiny part of his head sticking out. It’s breaking my heart. First pic is now, the other was when I brought him home. 😔 Thank you for any suggestions.

    No advice (except maybe try the same food the store had him on if you haven’t already) because it sounds like you’ve done a lot. Nice of you to give him a chance. Sorry he hasn’t taken to it
