today i found all my bettas that were in my 30 gallon ontop of eachother under some rocks, i just found them whi i was going to feed them, she devil quickly swam to the top for air, i had to help angel, and then i saw red still under the rubble it was little reds fins, all tattered i swear if i were to touch them the y would fall to dust, i took him out put hium in a 1 gallon container, i filled it up with 30 gallon tank water, dosed melafix, he is not eating, but im not expecting him to at the moment, oh yea he has a BAD scrape on the side of his head, insted of his head being DARK red almost black it was flesh pink, he is very stressed and looks to be the worst, the girls are fine, just a little short of breath and eating its been like 5-10 minuets scence i found them, i will remove the rock wall fron the tank and make caves insted

Good water quality, let them settle down in the dark.

ok, its dark in my bacement, i lft the light on in the tanks, but on the table it is dim, i put him there, i put him in a critter keeper with a lid

Just keep an eye on them, but don't disturb them to much.Good luck.

thanx will do

How are the fish doing.

well the females are eating and just fine as before, the males holes have healed as far as i can see compleatly
and like an inch of his long red fins have fallen off, the part that couldent be healed, he is eating with gusto again and will soon be replaced with the others in the 30 again

That's good new then.

WAit, wait, are you saying that you kept females with males??
