Did your fish survive?

Fingers crossed

Thanks!

Really hoping he gets better!

Thank you!

Did he survive ?

Yes, so far. But he's not doing so well.

Is he usually that black?

It might just be the lighting.....he's really old so he has dull color.

is his tail usually that short

I don't know.

Unfortunately, bettas kept in small tanks without a filter or heater often have shorter lives and more health problems. How old is he? Do you use a dechlorinator?
The best thing you can do right now is not feed him and change the water again. Don’t change out all of the water, just about half of it. When adding in new water, make sure it’s a similar temperature to the water in his tank so you don’t shock him.
If he survives, you should definitely try to get him a larger tank, a filter, and a heater (bettas like it at around 76-80F). Also, read up on the nitrogen cycle in aquariums.

Thanks for the info.

Thinking of your little fish!

Thank you so much!
