isolate e fish. dont let e fish see another fish for a few days.
can try to put into a dark area for a few days?
should cure e problem.

Hi sleep,
Don't worry, lah...... From the look of your tank, it might be due to the background and the size of the tank U have put them in .....

Bettas at this age do not need such a big empty tank and try to reduce the amt of light ..... U can either put in some plants or leaves into the tank or put in a smaller tanks ..... Too much empty space would also cause stress to the fish.

Don't worry, once they have calm down, their normal behavious and colors would return.... U had seen that I also put some of the bigger ones in smaller containers able to see each other..... This is to ensure they practise flaring without injuring themselves.....

Hope this helps......


Thanks....
Shawn :)

Does anyone know what is the right tank size for the fish? Would smaller tank caused the fishes to have fins clamp?

the rite size is lyke the ones is WA/BK and at most betta keeper's houses....the size is around the same....Smaller Tanks do cost bettas to have fin clamps especially Long Tails...lyke the one i showed you ...the tank is too small...
