	Betta with Growing belly. Tried peas. Help? pics...
Pammy Hobbyist Posts: 148 Kudos: 130 Registered: 30-Mar-2004	Hi, My betta, Herme, is starting to develope a more fuller belly. On closer inspection today, i found that one side of it is larger than the other. I fed him some peas, yesterday and today. I've been watching and the belly hasn't shrunk. So far the medical/preventative measures i've took. Is adding 12 drops of Aquari-sol and turned the heater up to 85 degrees. Other than his belly getting bigger. He is acting ok. His playing in the bubble wand as usual. Any Ideas? Help? Please? pic 1: http://home.comcast.net/~pammylz/HPIM0527b.JPG pic 2: http://home.comcast.net/~pammylz/HPIM0528b.JPG Last edited by HermeLZ at 18-Dec-2004 17:29 Last edited by HermeLZ at 18-Dec-2004 17:30

But, i've waited a few days now. And it's not looking any better.....thanks though...I have betta max on stand-by...lol. Last edited by HermeLZ at 18-Dec-2004 20:57
