	My B.O.T.M is sick!
Nick Fish Addict 33 Posts: 553 Kudos: 668 Votes: 509 Registered: 09-Aug-2004	Yes my Betta of month winner, Pokey, is sick. He had a little problem with fin rot a couple of weeks ago, that I treated with Melafix. It seemed to work and his fin started to regrow, he seemed to be doing really well. But the last couple of days, he's been hanging out at the top and his body is starting to curve? I know i've seen posts about this but can't find them. He just had a WC 2 days ago, and gets one every week. Any advice?:#(:#(:#( *Jessnick attached this image:*

I don't know if that is a recent pic, but he looks bloated at the vent area where they usually do if they get stopped up. I have one that can't poop unless i put him in front of a mirror for several minutes. The strain of flaring pushes out a large nugget. I do this twice weekly. R.I.P. Betta :#(
