I woke up to find my betta called Mysterious with a swollen eye and a puffed up face. I immediately checked the levels in my tank nitrite was zero as i know as high levels can contribute to pop eye.

So i'm lost, at the moment he is very active and eating his food. But he has been hiding in a flower cup when ever im out of the room but comes out when i approah the tank. I will see if i can post a pic.

Thanks kitty that was such a great and helpful link!!!! He seems alot better today the eye has gone down abit in size and he has eaten his flake today. I added some melafix to the water and it seems to have helped a little.
